23.09.1 to 24.03b update fails EFI with ZFS mirror
0%
Description
System is using Coreboot (EFI only) and has a ZFS mirror:
zpool status
pool: pfSense
state: ONLINE
status: Some supported and requested features are not enabled on the pool.
The pool can still be used, but some features are unavailable.
action: Enable all features using 'zpool upgrade'. Once this is done,
the pool may no longer be accessible by software that does not support
the features. See zpool-features(7) for details.

From the install log things went well until:

- File update_log_april16.txt update_log_april16.txt added
24.03.r.20240416.0005 seems to resolve this.
Now still seeing "efibootmgr: efi_get_variable: Bad address" but it moves on and works.
