Gregor Kopka 8bd2a2866c Removed suggestion to use root dataset as bootfs 
The dracut howto proposed to boot from the root dataset of a pool.
Apart from this giving problems when booting (as the code seems to
expect a child dataset and creates an illegal dataset name when using
the root dataset) the technical limitations of the root dataset
(among others the inability to rename or destroy through the `zfs`
command) resulted in the general consensus to only use it as a
container for the datasets in the pool - not as a filesystem itself.

Removed the idea to boot from the root dataset.
