It only shows a few I've made manually in a zpool of my createion.
That output is kind of long to put here but since I selected the
default `all' when enabling time-slider this should be sufficient:

  zfs list -t all
  [...]
  rpool                               4.57G  3.25G    45K  /rpool

  rpool/ROOT/openindiana              3.75G  3.25G  3.70G  /
  rpool/ROOT/openindiana at install      51.7M      -  2.74G  -

I'm not sure how VB could be responsible. But no... no opportunity for
now. 

I can say though that out of two recent installs of 151a in VB neither
wound up with a working time-slider.  I already posted here about the
first one...

Any ideas how I can debug this?
