I am following this wiki page to move to zfs root:

I got to this section:
"Create bootdir directory where the boot file system will be mounted:
# mkdir /tank/bootdir
# ln -s bootdir/boot /tank/boot"
I am confused about the symlink line - what is 'bootdir' ?
Thanks,

Hi Matt
bootdir is where the ufs boot partition gets mounted on further down in
the instructions... The symbolic link is to keep everything in order when;
* upgrading or installing a new kernel
* updating any of the boot configs.
