Hi everyone, Now that zfsboot is becoming available, I'm wondering how to put it to use. Imagine a system with 4 identical disks. Of course I'd like to use raidz, but zfsboot doesn't do raidz. What if I were to partition the drives, such that I have 4 small partitions that make up a zfsboot partition (4 way mirror), and the remainder of each drive becomes part of a raidz? Do I still have the advantages of having the whole disk 'owned' by zfs, even though it's split into two parts? Swap would probably have to go on a zvol - would that be best placed on the n-way mirror, or on the raidz?
