2011/8/5 Samuel Thibault sthiba...@debian.org: Good. I'm rebuilding my own installer image for the bce driver anyway. I have a problem with partman-zfs version 12: I have set up a separate /boot UFS partition, and then used a multi-disk ZFS pool. partman-zfs still complains that I need a

- The hard disk was properly discovered, but the partitioning step was awfully slow. This may be related to partman-zfs. For now I've only worried about adding the missing features and correcting bugs, I think it still has much room for optimization. If someone wants to help with this, I
