    So I had a play with this on vultr (cloud, KVM based, virtio)

    And it worked pretty well, takes a while to load the boot archive but
    other than that worked just fine.

    Couple of things I noticed:

    There's no org.opensolaris.libbe:uuid property set on the root filesystem's
    dataset, which I think you'll need

    I saw a message at boot I didn't recognise:
    "Short hash module of length 0x0 bytes; ignoring"

    Mind you, it's confused between c3t0d0 and c2t0d0:

    $ zpool status
      pool: rpool
     state: ONLINE
      scan: scrub repaired 0 in 0h0m with 0 errors on Fri Mar  3 15:03:09 2017
    config:

        NAME        STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
        rpool       ONLINE       0     0     0
          c3t0d0    ONLINE       0     0     0

    # format
    Searching for disks...done

    AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS:
           0. c2t0d0 <Virtio-Block Device-0000-40.00GB>
              /pci at 0,0/pci1af4,2 at 4/blkdev at 0,0

    It was c3t0d0 in the installer shell, but that device no longer exisst and
    it's
    moved to c2t0d0.
