Description

When I try the OpenIndiana 2022 installer (the text installer) and select two target SATA disks (whole disk) I would expect that it automatically creates a ZFS mirror and installs OpenIndiana on a ZFS mirror.

However my test seems to indicate that this does not work

The workaround is to install on one disk and then manually mirror the boot disk.

zpool attach rpool c5t0d0 c5t2d0

Manually mirroring the boot disk DOES work so this provides a workaround ...

Note that I am using "whole disk" syntax for the SATA disks and the GPT partitions seems to correctly created for UEFI / EFI
