As the title suggests, can I delete everything except the files I need in an external zpool?
My zpool before was a root-on-zfs but it experienced problems when booting, and I failed on reviving it. The only choice left for me was to
What can I delete in the pool without affecting zfs capabilities and its import function, are these directories/files safe to delete?

I want to delete these files because when mounting it using
zpool import -fo altroot=/cluster

zpool import cluster

Code:
zfs_load="YES"
Code:
zfs_enable="YES"
