After you login can you do something like:
exec pfexec su -
so that your home directory is '/'? you might be unable to unmount
something that you need to unmount, if you login as the user 'x'.

You are making me dizzy and hurting my brain.
Question: Is /tank/home/x a separate filesystem, or is it part of
the /tank filesystem? You can answer by doing:
cd /tank/home/x
df -k .
If you can't interpret the result, give up now.
Answer ``a separate filesystem'':
read my instructions. I told you to unmount it in the first
step. The last step will remount it. rmdir will delete at
most one directory, not files or subdirectoreis, so it won't
hurt your files---that's why I told you to use rmdir for the
deleting.
Answer ``part of /tank filesystem'':
zfs create poolname/tank/x (or zfs create tank/x or
whatever is working to create /tank/x)
cd /tank/home/x
pax -rwpe . /tank/x
cd ..
[check that your homedir is backed up in /tank/x]
rm -rf /tank/home/x <-- blow away the old copy. this is not safe,
not like rmdir.
[follow my earlier instructions]
zfs rename poolname/tank/x poolname/tank/home/x
Answer ``neither one. a long rambling paragraph with no 72-char
line wrapping or sentence boundaries'':
I can't help you. Good luck.
