Brilliant, thank you. That worked a treat with a new boot size of 256k. Note that this page: https://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS/GPTZFSBoot/Mirror needs to be adjusted. This line: gpart add -b 34 -s 128k -t freebsd-boot ad0 needs to instead be gpart add -a 4k -s 512k -t freebsd-boot ad0 I don't have edit rights. Probably someone needs to clean up and merge many of these pages: https://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS/ Ari -- --------------------------> Aristedes Maniatis CEO, ish https://www.ish.com.au GPG fingerprint CBFB 84B4 738D 4E87 5E5C 5EFA EF6A 7D2E 3E49 102A
