Hello!

I wanted to let you know that FreeBSD is booting again. I don't know
exatly what was the solution but here's what I did:
    1. clean up the pool, now 90% of free space
    2. buildworld with r226519 and Andriy's patch:
       http://people.freebsd.org/~avg/zfs-boot-gang.diff
    3. reinstall the boot blocks (following RootOnZFS guide)

I can't be sure if it was a hardware failure or a FreeBSD issue only,
because I have problems with the battery and CPU cooling (reported
temperature below 0°C... under Windows 7 too).

I don't know if Andriy's patch fixes something in my case. Andriy, do
you want me to make further tests (without your patch and maybe with
the SVN revision I was using before)?

Again, thanks for all your suggestions!
