Hi, if anyone has some spare empty disks and always wanted to try out a FreeBSD zfs-root installation, feel free to test http://anonsvn.h3q.com/projects/freebsd-patches/export/45/manageBE/create-zfsboot-gpt_livecd.sh. This script will install FreeBSD onto a GPT based ZFS-root from the Fixit console of a 8.0-RC1 livefs-CD, maybe from the memstick too, haven't tested that. As the livefs on the CD does not include any freebsd packages, you need network connection before running the script. You can use more than one disk to create a zfsroot-mirror. All ZFS tuning recommendations do apply. WARNING: this script will remove any data on the disks you use! Feel free to send bugreports to me. greetings, philipp
