I booted the failing VM from the CD-ROM, ran "ssh-keygen -A", edited
/etc/ssh/sshd_config to change PermitRootLogin from no to yes, then
ran "/usr/lib/ssh/sshd &".  That let me login remotely from a terminal
window from which I can do cut-and-paste, and I could then do

        # zpool import -R /mnt rpoot

        # format
        Searching for disks...done

        Warning: Primary label on disk appears to be different from
        current label.

        Warning: Check the current partitioning and 'label' the disk or use the
                 'backup' command.
