That's good.  If there were no necessary changes, devfsadm would say
nothing.

There should be no need to create partitions.  Something simple like this
should work:
zpool create junkfooblah c13t0d0

And if it doesn't work, try "zpool status" just to verify for certain, that
device is not already part of any pool.

There may be something weird happening in your system.  I can't think of any
reason for that behavior.  Unless you simply have a SATA card that has no
proper driver support from opensolaris while in AHCI mode.

Yeah.  Weird.

Yeah.  Weird.
