Supplied boot0 code can be used to choose another disk to jump to it during boot process and will remember the last choice. I'm not really sure how to do this with GPT. Should I use boot0 instead of pmbr? However, this (http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/Booting-from-ZFS-raidz-td4032461.html) may be related to the problem: > You can boot from any of the drives and as long as the BIOS can see > enough drives you should be able to boot. In my case, the BIOS certainly can not see all members of the raid-z pool. The question is: why does it want to boot from raid-z at all, and how could it be persuaded to use the mirrored pool instead?Received on Thu Jul 07 2011 - 04:22:36 UTC
