* `org.zfsbootmenu:rootprefix` controls the prefix added to the name of the ZFS dataset provided as the root filesystem to kernels booted by ZFSBootMenu. For example, a command-line argument of "root=zfs:zpool/ROOT/OS" has a root prefix of `root=zfs:`, which is the default value unless the boot environment appears to be Arch Linux; for Arch, the default root prefix is `zfs=`. Set `org.zfsbootmenu:rootprefix` on any boot environment or its parent to override this default. Remember to include any necessary delimiters, like `:` or `=`.
