Uh... it only has to read the kernel+modules from the USB stick one time while booting. Otherwise, there really shouldn't be any IO inside /boot unless you login and do stuff in that directory manually. Your root filesystem would be on the normal hard drives. Anyhow the question is moot, since you don't have the same problem I did.= > No, it=92s actually just a single RAID6-0 disk created by the P410i=85 If you're going to use the RAID controller to generate a virtual drive, do you really need to use ZFS on top of that? Couldn't you partition your virtual drive and put / onto a small UFS partition and then make a zpool on the rest? Cheers, Matthew --=20 Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil.
