freebsd stable - Oct 2009 - i am desperate over some GPT tables

been looking for months now, trawled google no help, i just dont understand.
do you need a GPT table with zfs ?
i have a pentium D 3ghz (running 64bit stable 7.2) and i cant seem to import
my zpool into it
exported fine on solaris , its definitely the same version (v13)
but when i import into zfs it says GPT tables corrupt ?
why ? and what does this mean ?

Could you provide some more data? What is the error message for
example? From the zpool command and maybe what geom says about the GPT
in dmesg.

Send me the fist 34 sectors of the disk and I will try to take a look.

dd if=<raw disk device> of=header.dmp bs=512 count=34

hi Robert appreciate you having a look at this,
if you need any funny noises ever, give us a shout :)
i really dont know what to do as i dont have a spare box to try out solaris
on and solaris wont boot fully here...
i did manage to export the drives from solaris first so all *should* be
well...
there are three disks in the set ad4,ad6,ad8
terrabyte each - they are supposed to be two mirrors but one disk went down
should still work though - well was working in solaris...
as i said before it at least could read the pools from freebsd before but
something has happened now where it wont...

i think 4+6 are a mirror...
let me know if you can shed any light...
out of interest - how do you look at these dumps ? and what are you looking
for ?

thanks

Kris
