I'm very interested in ZFS v15. So, I made isboot integrated version.
It provides to install it to an iSCSI target directly and boot from
the iSCSI target without any configuration. You can play new features
easily on a diskless machine.

Download link:
http://www.peach.ne.jp/archives/isboot/demo/8.1rc2-zfsv15-v3-isboot-0.2.2.iso
(only add isboot.ko and isboot_load="YES" to loader.conf)

Known issues:
zfsintall destroy existing loader.conf.

You must add isboot_load="YES" before reboot.

# echo 'isboot_load="YES"' >> /mnt/boot/loader.conf

Or, load isboot.ko from loader prompt before booting, then add it.

For more detail about isboot, please refer to:

Here is an example configuration of istgt, and result of installed
system created by "zfsinstall -V15 -d da0 -d da1 -r mirror"

Note: this iSCSI test server is very poor.
(celeron 430, single core 1.8GHz, 2GB of RAM, 3 HDDs for iSCSI)
If you have better CPU/RAM, you can get more performance.
At least, istgt can handle upto Read 110MB/s and Write 103MB/s
at single path, Read 190MB/s and Write 173MB/s at dual path.
I sent PR(148422) of tested istgt, you become to able to install it
from ports soon.
