--- Comment #1 from Warner Losh <[email protected]> ---
The purpose of the generic probe is supposed to be to allow any GUID to be
found.

This likely broke in the OpenZFS integration.

There's a number of ZFS booting tests that I need to add.

For EFI, we have two modes of booting: strict and relaxed. Mostly so you can
have an installer USB with zfs root and also have a zfs root that should be
booted and both can boot when they are the boot device. Relaxed is 'just fi=
nd
anything, I won't have but one bootable zpool.

I'll have to take a closer look at this.
