– If using the ZFS installation option in *and* have enabled
full-disk encryption is enabled, a few entries will need to be
manually added to loader.conf(5) before the ‘bootpool’ zpool
will be available after the system boots. This manual step
is expected to be fixed in the next 10.0 release cycle build.The entries that need to be added are:
zpool_cache_load=”YES”
zpool_cache_type=”/boot/zfs/zpool.cache”
zpool_cache_name=”/boot/zfs/zpool.cache”This can be done at the final menu of bsdinstall(8), when
prompted to boot into the newly-installed system;
alternatively, this can be done post-install, in which case,
the following must be run before appending loader.conf(5):# zpool import -f bootpool
