freebsd stable - Feb 2015 - 10.1-RELEASE: bsdinstall on zfs: /var and /usr on zroot/ROOT/default

Hi everyone,

I recently installed a fresh 10.1-RELEASE (amd64) using bsdinstalls
zfs-setup on two mirrored disks.

As I wanted to move zroot/usr/home to zroot/home I noticed that
everything from /usr and /var is in the "/" mount (zroot/ROOT/default)

The "mountpoint" property of zroot/var and zroot/usr seems correct but
in fact it is not mounted there.

See http://sigsys.de/files/freebsd_101_zfs_root_fail_screenshot.jpg
(sorry, had no networking at this moment, so just a regular screenshot)

Is this a known bug? 
How can this be circumvented?
How can I "fix" this?

Best Regards
Raphael

That's odd I don't have a install done by zfs-setup but I do have a 
number of similarly setup boxes and the output displays correctly.

What does a straight df -h show and what if anything is in your /etc/fstab?

     Regards
     Steve

This is not a bug and you should not fix it:
this setup uses boot environments and /var and /usr with content belongs 
to particular BE. If/when you will fork BE with, say, CURRENT, it will 
need different files, hierarchies and filesets in /usr and /var.
On the other hand, /home, /var/log, /tmp, /var/tmp et cetera live outside 
of any BE.

Good news: booting into single user you may use vi or mc :)
