Title:
  Ubuntu-21.04 hirsute zfs encrypted install: installer does not mount
  bpool and does not create user datasets under rpool/USERDATA

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I *think* it is ubiquity that causes the error.
  What happens? Actually its two bugs I think:

  After a standard installation of hirsute (ISO downloaded 2021-03-30)
  with ZFS with encryption the bpool is not "mounted". After reboot
  /boot/efi is empty so update-grub cannot install new configs and
  kernels. From that point of view the system is unusable although it is
  running apparently normally, even booting normally.

  Second bug: there are no user datasets under rpool/USERDATA, not for
  root and not for the first user created during installation.
  rpool/USERDATA is empty.

  I tried this many times, on real hardware and on virtual machines, always exactly the same outcome.
  This report here is taken directly after the installation when beeing asked "Continue testing - Restart now", not clicking any of these.
