      Just installed a new 2.60 and noticed in the bootloader,
      directly after "configuring loopback interface"
      and before "starting syslog" i get the error

      '/var/log': not a ZFS filesystem

      i guess it has something to do with using /var in ramdisk

        That's not an error if it's actually not ZFS. Just an artifact produced by switching the ramdisks.
        I would not worry about it unless you're seeing issues with logging.
