--- Comment #1 from Jessica Clarke <jrtc27@freebsd.org> ---
As mentioned on IRC, /boot/pmbr is only used by the zfsboot script if
ZFSBOOT_BOOT_TYPE is BIOS or BIOS+UEFI (which is what's in parentheses next to
the partition scheme on the ZFS main menu dialog), and ZFSBOOT_BOOT_TYPE
defaults to UEFI when uname -m is arm64. So more information needed; as far as
I can see the only way to hit this error would be to explicitly select BIOS or
BIOS+UEFI in the menu by cycling through the options (which probably shouldn't
include unsupported options, but that's a separate issue).
