According to Wikipedia, "the > 9-current development branch [of FreeBSD] uses ZFS Pool version 28". > Correct. FreeBSD 9-CURRENT (dev branch that will be released as 9.0 at some point) as of March or April includes support for ZFSv28. And FreeBSD 8-STABLE (dev branch that will be released as 8.3 at some point) has patches available to support ZFSv28 here: http://people.freebsd.org/~mm/patches/zfs/v28/ ZFS-on-FUSE for Linux currently only supports ZFSv23. So you can "safely" use Illumos, Nexenta, FreeBSD, etc with ZFSv28. You can also use Solaris 11 Express, so long as you don't upgrade the pool version (SolE includes ZFSv31). -- Freddie Cash fjwc...@gmail.com
