P hangs (Import ZFS pools by cache file)

[KaiHawaii]

Hi.

My Proxmox test server does not start anymore. It hangs with the message

"A start job is running for Import ZFS pools by cache file (x min y s / no limit)"

I did it myself, but I don't know how to get out of it without a new installation. What I have done (strongly shortened, but should contain all relevant points):

1. proxmox installed, ZFS Pool built from a few disks.
2. shutdown, ZFS Pool not exported.
3. install FreeBSD on another boot disk, delete ZFS Pool and create a new one.
4. the original disk installed again, Proxmox booted, hangs.

I read the message like this: Proxmox has noted the ZFS configuration somewhere. When it starts, however, this is no longer consistent with reality, and then it becomes stuck.

How do I get out of this number? Does anyone have an idea?

Thank you for your help!

Oh, interesting. In the GRUB bootloader I pressed "e" on the default entry to change the start parameters. I didn't change anything, but booted with F10. And since then I'm fine...
