You did not provide a list of your filesystems, so this is just a guess,
but I'd say that, judging by this error, you have /etc on a separate
filesystem.

At least /bin, /sbin, /lib, /libexec, and /etc must be on your root
filesystem for the boot process to function, since the system bootstrap
(/etc/rc et alia) resides in /etc and uses components in the other
listed directories; it is the system bootstrap which automounts your ZFS
filesystems on boot (zfs_enable).
