The instructions look sane, but maybe there is a mistake in them. Someone need= s to follow them exactly and to check what happens. The second link also contains perfectly valid instructions. It is not necessary to create a bsdlabel and a partition within it for ZFS, but it ca= n be done if so desired. zfsboot(8) is the worst, of course. It instructs to create a bsdlabel with= in the slice, but the subsequent instructions are for installing ZFS to the sl= ice. So, the label is useless at best and harmful at worst. I think that "gpart create -s BSD ada0s1" should be removed from the manual page. Everything else looks okay. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
