I want to reconfigure my desktop. I want to move it from 10.1 to 11, I am using 11-CURRENT now I would like to move it to ZFS raidz1 (four drives). Here is the current setup: Win7 and freebsd 10.1 on the first hard drive ada0 $ mount /dev/ada0s3a on / (ufs, local, noatime) devfs on /dev (devfs, local, multilabel) /dev/ada1p2 on /usr/home (ufs, local, noatime) linprocfs on /compat/linux/proc (linprocfs, local) /dev/ada1p3 on /tmp (ufs, local, noatime, soft-updates) fdescfs on /dev/fd (fdescfs) $ gpart show => 63 976773105 ada0 MBR (466G) 63 1985 - free - (993K) 2048 204800 1 ntfs (100M) 206848 614195200 2 ntfs (293G) 614402048 34 - free - (17K) 614402082 362371023 3 freebsd [active] (173G) 976773105 63 - free - (32K) => 0 362371023 ada0s3 BSD (173G) 0 314572800 1 freebsd-ufs (150G) 314572800 47798222 2 freebsd-swap (23G) 362371022 1 - free - (512B) => 34 5860533101 ada1 GPT (2.7T) 34 2014 - free - (1.0M) 2048 1953122304 1 ms-basic-data (931G) 1953124352 1048576000 2 freebsd-ufs (500G) 3001700352 8388608 3 freebsd-ufs (4.0G) 3010088960 2850444175 - free - (1.3T) New setup will have freebsd on raidz with Win7 on the SSD only. Can I install the four drives for the raidz, configure and install freebsd then remove ada1 when I have it all working? or should I remove ada1 then install the raidz drives install then reinstall ada1 and the pull everything over? Will the installer handle installing root to zfs raidz? or will I have to wing it? Going for a clean install and synth to do the ports.
