BRIEF:
When a ZFS partition is present on a disk, if that disk is used for the OS and a swap partition is created using the installtion script, the ZFS headers have a potential of not being removed from the swap partition, causing ZFS to recognize the swap partition as a valid ZFS partition.
The ZFS partitions should probably be wiped of their metadata before wiping the GPT.
STEPS AND RESULTS:
Following the steps below will cause the OS to fail to boot due to multiple ZFS pools with the label of `boot-pool`.
Install TrueNAS SCALE without a swap partition using `/dev/sda`.
Reinstall TrueNAS SCALE with a swap partition using `/dev/sda`.
Run from the shell `wipefs /dev/sda4`.
ACTUAL RESULT:
wipefs /dev/sda4
