No luck. Qemu (seabios) will always have this order:
1. first disk
2. DVD/CD
3. IPXE
4. second disk
5. Legacy option romm

PS. Above only concerns the installer kernel. The kernel installed has
no such issues so you can use the prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c..... | fmthard
-s - /dev/rdsk/c....... and zpool attach -f rpool c..... c..... after initial boot.


PPS. Booting installer iso using sata or scsi will
increase load speed by a factor 10.
