I'm planning to upgrade to 9.0 soon and thought this might be a good opportunity to switch over to ZFS so I'm currently experimenting on a spare drive with the 9.0-RC2 DVD.
I started off following the procedure in http://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS/GPTZFSBoot but hit a problem in that the the new installer doesn't appear to provide a Fixit option. I've tried the shell and live cd options in the installer and also tried booting single user from the DVD but these all use the DVD as a read only root file system instead of the memory based file system in Fixit mode. I was able to get as far as creating a zpool but the first zfs create comand produced an error saying that it was unable to mount zroot/tmp. What's the correct approach to go about this with the 9.0-RC2 installer? -- Mike Clarke _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
