I think the reason is that grub2 has problems with recognizing FreeBSD's zpools.

Re: GRUB2 on OpenBSD 5.3-amd64: linking problem
Hi Vladimir, So I'm preparing a OpenBSD port of GRUB2. I have chosen a revision 5152 for the initial version of the port. Unfortunately, the build fails when using -Werror. I suspect that the ports framework overrides some values that are usually guessed by ./configure, and this causes build to fail. The build log are available here: Build with -Werror: http://dl.bakulin.de/openbsd/grub-build/make_werror.log Build without -Werror: http://dl.bakulin.de/openbsd/grub-build/make_no_werror.log Build using ./configure --disable-silent-rules LEX=/usr/local/bin/gflex, out of ports framework (in this case ./configure doesn't use any cached values): http://dl.bakulin.de/openbsd/grub-build/make_standalone.log I am not familiar with the GNU configure, but AFAIK the product of ./configure is the set of config-*.h files. If it is right, there are two files for GRUB2, config.h and config-util.h. Here is a diff between config-util.h generated during standalone and port build: $ diff config-util.h_standalone config-util.h_portbuild 1040c1040 /* #undef HAVE_SYS_MOUNT_H */ --- #define HAVE_SYS_MOUNT_H 1 1518c1518 #define restrict __restrict --- #define restrict __restrict__ That is, HAVE_SYS_MOUNT_H is defined when building the port, and restrict is __restrict__. Could you please help me to debug this error? -- Ilya On Wednesday 18 September 2013 13:49:38 Vladimir 'φ-coder/phcoder' Serbinenko wrote: On 30.08.2013 19:33, Douglas Ray wrote: calomel.org asserts that, as of OpenBSD 5.1, all their random devices use the arc4 library; /dev/urandom now gives as good as /dev/arandom.

grub2 boot root-on-zfs errors
This doesn't demonstrate anything else than that you didn't use tools
correctly. It's: grub-probe -d /dev/ada0p2
Thank you very much - I ran the command you instructed and see that
the FS is identified correctly.
$ grub-probe -d /dev/ada0p2
zfs
I cannot, however, boot from grub directly into zfs-root. After the
grub menu comes up, and I fall to command-prompt, listing the drives
shows no ZFS paths and the various menu variations I have tried do not
work.
Unfortunately, there is not much accurate documentation for
FreeBSD+ZFS+grub, and the linux solutions to the problem do not work
for FreeBSD.
The main problem form the grub loader / command line, is that I cannot
get any code loaded which is located on a ZPOOL:
menuentry 'FreeBSD-ZFS' {
insmod zfs
set root='hd0,gpt2'
kfreebsd /boot/loader }
Fails because grub cannot find bootloader and gives no such file error.
Please let me know what ıther info I can provide to debug the problem.

menuentry 'FreeBSD-ZFS' {
insmod zfs
set root='hd0,gpt2'
kfreebsd /boot/loader }
Fails because grub cannot find bootloader and gives no such file error.
You didn't specify the dataset (or snapshot) which has the /boot/loader
file you're interested in.
For instance:
tankpool/mydataset/myfolder/myfile
should be written as (hd0,gpt2)/mydataset/@/myfolder/myfile.
You can check the syntax by using the Grub interactive command line and
tab-completion.

Syntax is:

I think it's described somewhere in manual

No, it is not. There are examples using zfs with this syntax (but
without snapshot)s).
I'm not sure where should it go ... in File name syntax probably?
