Completely unrelated to the main thread: on 05/03/2013 07:32 Jeremy Chadwick said the following: > That said, I still do not recommend ZFS for a root filesystem Why? > (this biting people still happens even today) What exactly? > - Disks are GPT and are *partitioned, and ZFS refers to the partitions > not the raw disk -- this matters (honest, it really does; the ZFS > code handles things differently with raw disks) Not on FreeBSD as far I can see. P.S. I completely agree with your suggestions on simplifying the setup and gathering objective information for the purpose of debugging the issue. I also completely agree that "me too"-ing is not very useful (and often completely incorrect) for the complex problems like this one. Thank you. -- Andriy Gapon
