[OpenIndiana-discuss] livecd zpool import -fR /a xpool but no files

I'm having trouble trying to use the livecd for oi to get the existing
rpool mounted and accessable.

I've booted with livecd build 147

zpool import -f -R /a xpool

Gives me:

  zpool list  

  NAME    SIZE  ALLOC   FREE    CAP  DEDUP  HEALTH  ALTROOT
  xpool  17.9G  4.94G  12.9G    27%  1.00x  ONLINE  /a

  And zfs list -r xpool

 zfs list -r xpool
 NAME                       USED  AVAIL  REFER  MOUNTPOINT
 xpool                     5.88G  11.7G    31K  /a/xpool
 xpool/ROOT                3.82G  11.7G    31K  /a/a
 xpool/ROOT/openindiana    3.82G  11.7G  3.72G  /a/b
 xpool/dump                1023M  11.7G  1023M  -
 xpool/export                95K  11.7G    32K  /a/export
 xpool/export/home           63K  11.7G    32K  /a/export/home
 xpool/export/home/reader    31K  11.7G    31K  /a/export/home/reader
 xpool/swap                1.06G  12.7G   124M  -

As you see, the files that matter, those under /etc are not available
anywhere under /a

  From the import command I should be able to see /a/xpool/ROOT
 
But no soap.

So how does one get at the files under rpool from a live cd?
