The only major thing that changed in the installer was the change to make swap its own slice, rather than a zvol in the zpool. I will run Bart's latest image and do some debugging. If we had an issue with swap and the root pool overlapping I would think what we would see would be data corruption. And possibly a panic but a panic in ZFS or tmpfs, not hsfs. There is no hsfs on the target disk.
