Add simple option to pass to kernel via loader. dozfs=cache will use /etc/zfs/zpool.cache avoiding 30+ second wait for udev in zpool import Also it's possible to use both cache and force at the same time: dozfs=force,cache (order is not important) will force import and use cache.

I force-pushed a small addition, that checks for the presence of cache file in initrd and falls-back to scanning if the file is not found or empty. |

while this #15 approach also works, I prefer mine (obviously)
So I propose this:
Add simple option to pass to kernel via loader.
dozfs=cache will use /etc/zfs/zpool.cache
avoiding 30+ second wait for udev in zpool import
Also it's possible to use both cache and force
at the same time:
dozfs=force,cache (order is not important) will
force import and use cache.
