Thank you. I was wrong about /zroot/ROOT. That comes from taking the 
standard guided zfs install. I was not wrong however about the output of 
zfs list. I will see if I can duplicate the error on the reinstalled 
system.

Interestingly doing a zfs install produced a system with /etc/rc.conf from 
the crashed system. I did this twice so I'm pretty sure of this. I got rid 
of the old data by using a ufs install followed by zfs getting new and 
empty system again.
