Oh yes, that is what you explained before... sorry I said that backwards ... If I were to detach the smaller discs, then that would leave the bigger disk to boot off of...
Yes, that should also work :)
So, maybe I can do something tricky during boot to get to the single user, or maintenance more, or whatever its called, long enough to attempt increasing the rpool disc size If so, I'm not finding it with google, and the openindiana wiki is totally silent on it... or so it seems. Maybe I can edit something at the grub boot screen or such?
Yes, you can try adding "-s" to the kernel "command-line" in GRUB, and this should boot you into single-user mode, where "root" is regarded as an interactive user (with password) and not a role. Alternately, you can boot from Live media (installer), then run # zpool import -R /a -N -f rpool This allows you to clean up obsolete snapshots, expand the pool, etc. You can mount the filesystem, like # zfs mount rpool/ROOT/openindiana It would likely appear as "/a" in the Live filesystem; then you can edit files on this pool and perhaps wipe the user's password or insert the cryptext from some other source (i.e. /etc/shadow of live media, with known password for "jack:jack" and such). When done, don't forget to # zpool export rpool So that you can properly boot off it.
