https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=263233 Bug ID: 263233 Summary: bsdinstall: 'ZFS Configuration' has become a confusing heading for encryption-related stages of installation of FreeBSD Product: Base System Version: CURRENT Hardware: Any URL: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/tree/main/usr.s bin/bsdinstall OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: grahamperrin@gmail.com >From <https://www.tumfatig.net/images/2017/Vultr-FreeBSD-ZFS-root-17.png>; in 2017: > ZFS Configuration > > Enter a strong passphrase, … The same wording is used in the current installer for FreeBSD. Anyone who knows of OpenZFS support for encryption might, naturally, assume that it's a passphrase for OpenZFS encryption. Not so. Similarly, from <https://www.tumfatig.net/images/2017/Vultr-FreeBSD-ZFS-root-19.png>: > ZFS Configuration > > Initializing encryption on selected disks, … There's less potential for confusion, because OpenZFS encryption does not apply at the disk level, but only slightly less (because not all people will make the distinction). Generally: * need to review the appropriateness of 'ZFS Configuration' as a heading. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
