While we're at it, can we also add these two lines to the live CD's /etc/system if they're not detrimental to installing OI? It's kind of annoying to do it from grub when it's needed and I've found them to be very useful when recovering, but I added them to the installed OS, and now I'm in a situation where I want to recover from a messed up rpool. ( set zfs:zfs_recover=1 set aok=1 (Obviously don't want those to be added by default to the installed OI, but rather on the live CD/USB images.) Not to get too far off topic, but just last week I have my machine that reboots in a loop before it gets even to single user mode, and even with these lines, doing zfs import -F -f -R oldrpoolid newpoolname causes OI to panic and reboot after about 5-6 minutes... last thing I did on it was to install squid, but I don't believe that caused it. format/analyze/read shows no bad blocks, booting off the other drive in the mirror shows the same issue. So I expect there's some issues where it can't even read the kernel/drivers fully before it his the wall, so I'm messing around with zdb trying to get it to rollback whatever got messed up, but the last thing it said was that rpool was already imported. (I used the zpool ID, not "rpool" as a parameter to zdb, but since a live CD wouldn't have an rpool already mounted, it wouldn't cause this error. There's probably some way to force the issue... Of the top of my head, I did zdb -e -bbb {zpoolid} ) _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
