You can't do an in-place conversion of UFS to ZFS - you'll need to dump your UFS somewhere, build a ZFS root and restore the backup. Note that restore(8) is completely userland so you can use dump/restore. If your used space is small enough, you might be able to use the swap partition to store the backup. --=20 Peter Jeremy --WIyZ46R2i8wDzkSu Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQJ8BAEBCgBmBQJW/Lj9XxSAAAAAAC4AKGlzc3Vlci1mcHJAbm90YXRpb25zLm9w ZW5wZ3AuZmlmdGhob3JzZW1hbi5uZXRFRUIyOTg2QzMwNjcxRTc0RTY1QzIyN0Ux NkE1OTdBMEU0QTIwQjM0AAoJEBall6Dkogs0n5kP/j2JdyHvF7p3fPwAd2lyxpci XBiqPuEl8BKMlCHt3oEdlz5wHcKOPbsGWs0lEr+mOApBbsC/ph8VQelFel0FFMoH FyoiN1yp2mEew/1wyZUVpAVVWS1Y1Z/5ITtmvkBsrQSZj9qlvum6KBx++PaJDA/P TKa5xYdmcsVntwuSLCTQ7hk0aCvKl9blmWlLpe9CipVDwRYpT4ZksQt4L4XIG3Ry 5UR/9ufqLw7/jbTkmQdn+VRS+i6ukmdG8xAIBVQdL9OZKhxvrDNPxmIoUhdVv4Kt TRiEmdWAfcm2qmnc23BcisVtuKOEYMaP8rJF2ZkJS3PcNP6PK3Y+Huye/hpmiy2T tSP/HFN3FI9aJV0nTzCJJAVylVeZkYCULBKQzcK4kUVVnctnkv6SvqVVcgZaF+62 Jug9Cc7VHAv0EyCvCRKUInza3gkE5f9/xsp4ZKffRkNs4KJmCB3tnDMpIhW2yp+z VEFpHkwnLZg85MaBs6qdGy/Y7oLneP3Mly7SIN5YOgwL78LpcnvSp9ulmvn6At6+ i6EzdoehSvzblQ/ViQu02JniYSUNVm7LH6ZBdtWybmYZeMaT86PS5C+IoSQAoufg NXo4dPEI2+4tWVahJnDXXXnnZXAgypWPOS72T5g09QEyOo/Fbp73d6feoSRTYlx6 G1S6YKWsI1w12aUM3+OY =KwXg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --WIyZ46R2i8wDzkSu--
