I think, You are wrong. ZFS does that. At least according to docs.

Ho doesn't actively use s8. It's default behaviour again.

If you read the docs, his scenario perfectly fits to the layout what the
docs says:
https://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Advanced+-+Creating+aligned+rpool+partitions

The only difference here, that he uses p1 for the "other" os, and uses p2
for the pool. But besides that, it's a textbook example: s8 is created as
"boot slice". boot slice is one cylinder long. No useful data there, and he
didn't intend to use s8 directly. He just wants to use the zpool.

Cheers,
Gyu
