Your dataset hierarchy is not what beadm expects.  Specifically, you
have /boot separate from /, which I imagine is causing your problem. 
/boot should be part of /.  Also, you have several file systems in the
BE that are usually not in it; I doubt this is part of your boot
failure, though.

For reference, here is my layout, which is mostly the same as the
default installation:
