For a list why not use the output of make install in spl and zfs?

Brendon, sorry for being discouraged about your suggestion for me to follow the build instructions. I had just never ventured to build before.

However, my problem was smaller than that. I just needed to know where the wrong zpool commands that my computer seemed to follow came from. Lundman suggested that an old file had survived my previous attempts to unistall them.

Then I had to go away for a month, and I left the task for later. When I got back I proceeded this way.

First, I ran again all the uninstallers: the old uninstaller for Zevo, GreenBytes edition, in case something was left over from then. Then the uninstaller that with the last release.

Then, before installing again, I looked for any file whose name contained zpool or zfs. There were actually two such files in /usr/ and they were older than any current openzfs version. So I deleted them, then I proceeded to install again the last 2nd of May beta.

This time, when I tried to build the mirror, the command that didn't work just worked. So I am marking the problem as solved.

Thank you to all that helped me.
Marco
