[zfs-discuss] Problem with ZFS on slices

[Josip Gracin]

Hello!

I think there might be a bug in ZFS related to creating/using pools on 
slices.  I've been trying to install SXCE b28 for the last two days on 
an amd64 machine and it always ends up in corrupting the label of the 
disk on which I'm trying to create a ZFS pool within the existing slice.

Here's what I did.  I installed the OS normally, in a single 10GB slice. 
  During the installation, I specified for the disk layout to have an 
additional filesystem, on slice 4.  This FS was to be mounted on /fs1. 
After the installation had finished, I unmounted /fs1  and created a ZFS 
pool from it (zpool create pool c0d0s4).  Everything seemed fine for a 
while, until the system paniced saying that 'the disk label had been 
corrupted'.

I've tryed doing this in several other ways, but all finished with the 
same result.

Am I doing something wrong?
