ah, this was where my guts were pointing, so some more 'history':
The installation was done via diskless/PXE, and no amount of magic I tried
changed the location of the cache, since /boot/zfs is read-only, so I finally
booted from a usb and copied the cache, to z/root/boot/zfs
is there some way to dump/check/edit it?
thanks,
