I am getting really confused now, if I add LOADER_ZFS_SUPPORT=yes to my /etc/make.conf, the RELENG_7 system will be built with zfs boot support, but I still need the actual /boot/loader from 8-CURRENT? Is that getting MFC'ed into into RELENG_7 anytime soon? Where are all make.conf options documented by the way? Neither /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf nor "man make.conf" make any reference to the LOADER_ZFS_SUPPORT option. - Dan Naumov On Mon, Jun 8, 2009 at 7:49 PM, Alberto Villa wrote: > On Monday 08 June 2009 17:44:40 Dan Naumov wrote: >> Several posts made to this list AFTER the zfs v13 MFC to RELENG_7 >> indicated that even after that MFC, you still needed gptzfsboot from >> 8-CURRENT to be able to boot from a full ZFS system.
