The device name prefix for IDE hard drives used to be `ad' but now is `ada' (http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/disks-naming.html). For virtio hard drives it is `vtbd'. Under an MBR partition table a slice will be used, so the name of the first partitions will be either `ada0s1a' or `vtbd0s1a'. Under a GPT partition table, where no slice is needed, the name of the first partition will be either `ada0p1' or `vtbd0p1'.

So, I've long known and it makes sense that when you're booted from a ZFS volume, you can't mess with the boot-loader. And, I know a few months ago I had a set of commands I would use when booted from a CD that would initialize the network and copy the "release/boot" from somewhere else so that I could install bootblocks and boot-loaders from more recent code. Sadly, I
