On x86 on zfs cyl 0 must be left out of zfs root pools.
Been there.

Maybe not for core Solaris, but it
may be so, but in all x86 installation if one choose the default or use
vbox image
s11, s11 express , oi, s10u10 all have zfs rpool disk partition start
from cyl 1
On this list I even come across some user some issues with zpool create
that use disk partition start from cyl 0.
rather be safe
I tried to use cylinder 0 for root on x86, but in the UFS days, and I
lost the vtoc on both mirrored disks.
The installer had selected cylinder 1 as the starting cylinder for the
first disk, and I thought I should be able to use cylinder 0 as well, so
for the mirror I partitioned it to start
one possible way:
1)break the mirror
2)install new hdd, format the HDD
3)create new zpool on new hdd with 4k block
4)create new BE on the new pool with the old root pool as source (not
sure which version of solaris or openSolaris ypu are using the
procedure may be different depend on version
I suppose I must start by labelling the new disk properly, and give the s0
partition to zpool, so the new zpool can be booted?

yes
which version of solaris or bsd you are using?
for bsd I donot know the steps for create new BE (boot env)
for s10 and opensolaris and solaris express (may be other opensolaris
fork) , you use the liveupgrade
for s11 you use beadm

Hi Hans,
Its important to identify your OS release to determine if
booting from a 4k disk is supported.

Sorry, if you meant distinguishing between true 512 and emulated
