[OpenIndiana-discuss] Are there any issues re ZFS on 2TB disks (from WD??) with large blocksizes?

Following on from this discussion, how do I force the OI 148 live DVD or 
text installers to boot a 64-bit kernel? It's supposed to auto-detect the 
system's CPU but on my HP Microserver, it boots the 32-bit kernel, 
corrrectly identifes the 160 GB disk and then complains that the three 2 
TB disks also installed are not supported by this kernel.

I really need this to run in 64-bit mode as I want to put the three 2 TB 
disks into ZFS. The system boots 64-bit Linux and FreeBSD without any 
problem.
