Comment(by billksun):

 Hi Kris,

 I have tried zfs without mirror and plain ufs.  Both exhibit the same
 behavior as before.  I then tried to install Kubuntu 10.4, and while I can
 get past the POST screen, I get a bunch of memory related errors when
 loading the OS.

 So I decided that motherboard may be flaky, and upgraded it, along with a
 new CPU and new memory sticks.  Once the upgrade was completed, I was able
 to boot a mirrored zfs RC1 installation.  So I think this confirms that
 something was wrong with my hardware an not PC-BSD.

 Thanks for your help!
