X-BeenThere: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Production branch of FreeBSD source code List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 13 Jun 2008 14:13:25 -0000 There's nothing you can do right now except for wait. By default the zfs implementation on osx will create a zfs version 6 zpool (to retain compat with the read-only kext that ships with 10.5) but once you've upgraded you can't go back. There is a newer version of zfs for freebsd but it hasn't been commited yet. See http://kerneltrap.org/FreeBSD/BSDCan_2008_ZFS_Internals Your only option is to wait until this is committed or patches are offered at least. pjd is the man so it shouldn't be too long :-) Timothy Wilson wrote: > Hello everyone, > > I know -stable is supposed to be, well, stable, but I seem to be in a > bit of a pickle. > > I'm trying to import my zfs file system from a Macintosh machine.
