Mike makes a good point. We have some severe problems
with build 63. I've been hoping to get an answer for what's
going on with it, but so far, I don't have one.
So, note to everyone: for zfs boot purposes, build 63 appears
to be DOA. We'll get out information on that as soon as possible,
sits there for a second, then boot loops and comes back to the grub menu.
I noticed this too when I was playing... using
kernel$ /platform/i86pc/kernel/$ISADIR/unix -v -B $ZFS-BOOTFS
I could see vmunix loading, but it quickly NMIed around the
rootnex: [ID 349649 kern.notice] isa0 at root
That's a good catch - I had indeed changed mine to rootpool, but didn't
think the chosen name mattered.

The name of the pool should not matter.

I also downloaded the .iso file, burned it, and started the install process. I
followed these instructions for creating the profile.
[i]Here's a quick-and-dirty way to do a profile-driven install:
1. Boot your system off the net or from the DVD in the usual manner.
2. Select Interactive
The only big difference I see between what you did and what I did was I
didn't have the cluster line.
On reboot, mine said something like 'Solaris nv_b62'
Is it possible there were any errors while it was installing?
If it generates a log during install, maybe you can ftp it away before the

You've delivered us to awesometown, Brain.
zfsboot.tar.bz2 is a vmware image made on a VMWare Server 1.0.1
machine.
But oops, what is the root login password?! :)

Hi Lori,
Thanks to you and your team for posting the zfs boot image kit. I was able
to jumpstart a VMWare virtual machine using a Nevada b62 image patched with
your conversion kit and it went very smoothly.
Here is the profile that I used:
# Jumpstart profile for VMWare image w/ two emulated
I was hoping that someone more well-versed in virtual machines
would respond to this so I wouldn't have to show my ignorance,
but no such luck, so here goes:
Is it even possible to build a virtual machine out of a
zfs storage pool? Note that it isn't just zfs as a root file system
we're trying
I'm not sure I understand the question.
Virtual machines are built by either running a virtualization technology
in a host operating systems, such as running VMware Workstation in
Linux, running Parallels in Mac OS X, Linux or Windows, etc.
These are sometimes referred to as Type II VMMs, where
