[OpenIndiana-discuss] OI 1.8 /dev: need help (missing feature for read 'org.illumos:lz4_compress')

[Jonathan Adams]

You might need to get a newer bootable ISO of Illumos (that has lz4
support), boot your system, zpool import your root pool, and re-install the
grub from the /boot partition on that drive.

when you upgraded your root pool you hadn't got the lz4 modules installed
in your grub.
