    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.
