I think that the file zpool.cache is missing or it contains pool data coming from the USB stick you used. I wrote an article for this, but unfortunatelly is in Greek... The article is here: http://www.freebsdworld.gr/node/38#zpool_cache Besides the problem that you will not understand what I write (:)) you can follow the commands. You will probably understand what's happening there. Just skip the part that I cange the names of the gpt partitions (the one that I have a bunch of "gpart modify" commands) I hope it will be usefull to you Regards Elias
