Hello,
after installing 2008.11 and accidently locking up the administrative account 
by 
giving it userid=0, I cannot login to our machine (only role based access 
allowed). 
So I tried it the usual way: boot from 2008.11 live-cd, then 'zpool import -f 
-R /a rpool' 
or  'zpool import -f -R /a 23532453453 root_pool'  (tried both variants, id is 
fake).

The weird effect is that, although zfs list shows that rpool/ROOT/opensolaris 
is mounted
on /a, I can only see a few directories (/a/export/home/,/a/rpool), but no 
files at all, and 
also not the usual root directories ! So no way to change /a/etc/shadow and 
/a/etc/passwd.
Booting again  from the disk, everything is fine (except no login possible...).

What's going on here ? A rc2 bug ? Any other ways to get the pool into a usable 
state ?
