All: I've got a few questions. I'd like to update my main server and my server here at home. They're both running Freebsd 10.3 and I want to push them to 11. Really I'd like to rebuild the kernel and world but that's a bit away. My biggest problem is that I always end up somehow breaking things and then need to get eyeballs (I'm totally blind) to help me recover/reinstall. Both systems are using zfs. I've tried to figure out the multiboot environment, but not having much luck. I can force my systme to reboot, but I'm curious if there's an easy way to set up multiboot environments so I can boot configurations to test. If so, are there some clear instructions somewhere on how to do so? Finally, can I have it boot to an environment once and if it reboots swap back to the old one?
