Thank you! Google Translate has helped some, and I will give that all a try this morning.

ZFS root mount problem
I'm installing 8.2 on a server using the instructions for ZFS root filesystem (http://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS/GPTZFSBoot), and when I reboot after installing, it says: Root mount waiting for: usbus4 followed by: ROOT MOUNT ERROR When I did the initial install, I booted using a CD, and then from the 8.2 livefs on a USB stick. I'm not sure where it's getting usbus4 from when it boots from the hard disk. I can't figure out where to reset this. Any pointers?
