It is the case that we have lost drives and reshuffled spindles and now lost power and upon power-up the boot loader is missing.

Is there a way to specify the zfs pool's kernel and continue to boot using the USB LiveCD's bootloader?
We have attempted to load the kernel and opensolaris.ko and zfs.ko from the USB stick but the command
We want to try and boot the beast manually before we try and fix the boot mechanism.
