Can't we upstream the Xenial zfs script instead of fixing the "new" one? It supports the same syntax, and does what it needs to do? And it does not try to mount datasets I explicitly configured not to be mountable ;)
Seems like the faster solution, no? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to zfs-linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1685528 Title: ZFS initramfs mounts dataset explicitly set not to be mounted, causing boot process to fail Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Per https://github.com/zfsonlinux/pkg-zfs/issues/221: the initramfs zfs script might overrule canmount and mountpoint options for a dataset, causing other mount operations and with them the boot process to fail. Experienced this with Ubuntu Zesty. Xenial seems to ship with a different zfs script for the initrd. Work around when it happens: unmount the dataset that should not be mounted, and exit the initramfs rescue prompt to resume booting.
