I don't know much about JET, but a jumpstart install of a system with a
zfs root will do the necessary disk formatting. The profile keywords
that describe the disk layout work more or less the same for zfs as they
do for ufs, subject to the ways that zfs is different from ufs (you
don't need a separate swap/dump slice, for example). "any" will format
the drive for you, just like for ufs.

With JET, you can specify a ZFS install by selecting the disk slice to
install the rpool onto (or "any" to let the install choose a disk).
But this appears to assume that the disk is already formatted. Or does
it? It looks like if you specify "any" that it may or may not format
the drive for you.
With UFS-based installs, jumpstart will format the disk per the
jumpstart profile. of course. It's not clear how to dive this with JET.
Any experiences?
Thanks,
