Hi again, I'm not so sure that it's useable. For instance (_after_ running installworld): # pwd /usr/obj/usr/src/bin/cat # diff cat /bin/cat Files cat and /bin/cat differ # cp cat /bin # diff cat /bin/cat # Or, in english, the files doesn't seem to be installed by installworld. What I don't understand though, is why installworld receives "Operation not supported" errors while my simple cp (or install(1)) works every time. I have very limited experience using flags, though. Are flags retained when files are copied to a ZFS filesystem, even though ZFS doesn't actually support them? I have no idea how or where flags are actually "stored"... Or if there's a way to remove them.
