You can: - install to a partition that's the size you want rpool - expand the partition to the full disk - leave the s0 slice for rpool alone - make another slice for l2arc in the newly available space Or you can: - use a zvol for the l2arc and forget all this partitioning crap like zfs intended. -- Dan.
