Hello.

I have done some work on making installation on raidzN/mirror pools directly from text installer.

Test images are available here:
http://buildzone.oi-build.r61.net/raidz-install-isos/ (these are minimal images + cheksum file).

Code is available here: https://github.com/pyhalov/slim_source/tree/zpool_install .

Please, test it and review code.

As for testing I've checked raidz install on 3 disks + usual install on MBR partition alongside FreeBSD. Note, that our installer currently doesn't detect other OSes (after loader change), so you had to add chainload entry manually after installation to be able to boot other OSes. In my case it was

echo 'chain_disk="disk0s1:"'> /boot/conf.d/chainload

I hope these changes will land in 2016.10 (or already 2016.11?) OI snapshot.
