Just another note: I haven't had my coffee yet, when writing my replay to
you this morning.
If the ZFS module is loaded by the loader the symlinking trick will not
work. The module tries to load /boot/zfs/zpool.cache or expects zpool.cache
preloaded from the loader. However, I could not teach the loader to
load zpool.cache from the nanobsd configuration slice.
If the module is loaded by /etc/rc.d/zfs, the symlinking works, because the
module will try then try to load /boot/zfs/zpool.cache (which points to
/etc/zfs/zpool.cache) wich was initialized by rc.initdiskless.

Best regards,
Oliver
