Thanks, Roland van Laar [1] https://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS/GPTZFSBoot/9.0-RELEASE Looking through the wiki notes I would do a couple of things in a different way. Since you're running 9.1-RELEASE you should take into account the need for the /boot/zfs/zpool.cache file until 9.2-RELEASE exist or you switch to the latest 9-STABLE. Create your zpool using a command like this one: zpool create -o cachefile=/tmp/zpool.cache -m /tmp/zroot zroot /dev/gpt/disk0 Copy the /tmp/zpool.cache file to /tmp/zroot/boot/zfs/zpool.cache, or in your case to /mnt/boot/zfs/zpool.cache after extracting the base and kernel stuff. In the wiki section Finishing touches, perform step 4 before step 3. The final command missing in step 3 should be zfs unmount -a once more. Avoid step 5 at all cost! Maybe this recipe is easier to follow, it sure works for 9.0-RELEASE and 9.1-RELEASE, I only hope you're happy typing long commands, and yes, command line editing is available in the shell: https://ximalas.info/2011/10/17/zfs-root-fs-on-freebsd-9-0/ Thank you for that link. This worked (better). I'm getting into the 'mountroot>' shell during the boot. Oh well, I'm getting better at this. The ZFS guides on the wiki leave you with a empty root zfs filesystem after the installation. After I know a bit more about ZFS and why the FreeBSD wiki is wrong on ZFS installation I hope to edit them.

ZFS mirror install /mnt is empty
Hello, I followed these[1] step up to the Finishing touches. I'm using a 9.1 Release. After the install I go into the shell and /mnt is empty. The mount command shows that the zfs partitions are mounted. When I reboot the system it can't find the bootloader. What can I do to fix this?

ZFS partitioning
Hello, I'm following the raidz[1] and mirror[2] guides for a ZFS root. For a test installation on a 5 disk Virtualbox environment. I see that all the disks get the same partitions, including swap and boot? Why is that? And do I need those 5 boot and swap partitions?

ruby cpu 100% hang during pkgdb -F
Hello, I updated FreeBSD 8.0 to 8.2 with freebsd-update. Everything went fine till I got to the ports: I used the commands: # portupgrade -f ruby # rm /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db # portupgrade -f ruby18-bdb portupgrade -f ruby gave problems because of a security issue. So I updated the ports with portsnap extract and update. I upgraded ruby removed pkgdb.db Here is where things went wrong. portupgrade hangs while ruby eats 100% cpu. # pkgdb -F gives me this: ---> Checking the package registry database [Rebuilding the pkgdb in /var/db/pkg ... - 185 packages found (-0 +185) 100. done] Stale origin: 'devel/automake19': perhaps moved or obsoleted. -> The port 'devel/automake19' was removed on 2010-10-07 because: "No longer required by any port" -> Hint: automake-1.9.6_3 is not required by any other package -> Hint: checking for overwritten files... -> No files installed by automake-1.9.6_3 have been overwritten by other packages.

qmail authentication problems
Hello, After installing qmail, and being quit happy with it, I wanted to start using authentication; which I can't get to work. Installed mail/qmail-tls in tcp.smtp: 192.168.2.:allow,RELAYCLIENT="" :allow For checkpassword I am using /usr/local/bin/checkpassword which works fine (when the correct passwd is used) if I try it at the command line: printf "%s\0%s\0%s\0" roland S03p3rS3cre7 Y123456 | /usr/local/bin/checkpassword /usr/bin/id 3<&0 And it prints my user id. When I try to login via netcat: smtptest << EOF EHLO AUTH LOGIN cm9sYW5kCg== UzAzcDNyUzNjcmU3Cg== EOF $ nc localhost 25 < smtptest 220 yttrium.micite.net ESMTP 250-yttrium.micite.net 250-AUTH LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN 250-AUTH=LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN 250-STARTTLS 250-PIPELINING 250 8BITMIME 334 VXNlcm5hbWU6 334 UGFzc3dvcmQ6 535 authorization failed (#5.7.0) The log files are silent.
