Ahhh, understood. I do have have an image I can provide that was installed onto and MBR layout (seemed the easiest for libguestfs to understand, GPT is preferred if libguestfs works well with it, but that's another matter I can look into later).

Yes it would be useful to have this image. Either MBR or GPT should work equally well.

I tried opening it with virt-rescue, but for some reason the zfs-fuse daemon would not start, and hence other commands such as zpool didn't work.
