Hi.

I am trying to move the root volume from an existing svm mirror to a zfs
root.  The machine is a Sun V880 (SPARC) running nv_96, with OBP version
4.22.34 which is AFAICT the latest.

The svm mirror was constructed as follows

/
d4               m   18GB d14
    d14          s   35GB c1t0d0s0
    d24          s   35GB c1t1d0s0

swap
d3               m   16GB d13
    d13          s   16GB c1t0d0s3
    d13          s   16GB c1t1d0s3

/var
d5               m   8.0GB d15
    d15          s   16GB c1t0d0s1
    d25          s   16GB c1t1d0s1

I removed c1t1d0 from the mirror:
# metadetach d4 d24
# metaclear d24
# metadetach d3 d23
# metaclear d23
# metadetach d5 d25
# metaclear s25

then removed the metadb from c1d1d0s7
# metadb -d c1t1d0s7

Resized s0 on c1t1d0 to include the whole disc and relabelled with an
SMI label.

Created the zfs root pool:
# zpool create rpool c1t1d0s0

Created new BE:

# lucreate -c Sol11_b96 -n Sol11_b96_zfs -p rpool

This ran fine, so I activated the new BE and rebooted

# luactivate Sol11_b96_zfs
# init 6

The system then panicked during the reboot with:

Rebooting with command: boot

syncing file systems... done
skipping system dump - no dump device configured
rebooting...

It then cycles the reboot and panic until I pull the disc and reboot
continues from the original boot disc.

Any ideas why mounting root on zfs is apparently not supported?
