Another great article that goes straight to latest Valuable News issue - thank You for writing it :)

Now ... I would probably add least needed and least technical comment here - but that also hit me in the past ... the 'special' ASCII character ... misalign like 9 in 10 times.

Using 'regular' chars like '|' or '+' instead always aligns these ASCII diagrams well.

Regards,

Yesterday I migrated my #alpinelinux install to #zfs and #zfsbootmenu. It was not too difficult even though I've done it from partition to partition on one drive. Although I wouldn't recommend it to a...

Then why not add it to the installer?

You can literally gather all these commands into single script that would take a 'full drive' or 'partition' as target ... but for some reason unknown to me - nobody wants to do it.

Seems more like politics then a technical problem.

Its tragic.

There is no SINGLE Linux distribution with installer that would allow you to install Linux with Root on ZFS - with ZFS Boot Environments - and with ZFSBootMenu integrated ... NONE. ZIP. Nada. Zero.

Not to even mention that it would also support LUKS encryption on Linux - no way.

On FreeBSD you have fully protected setup with ZFS Boot Environments supported in the loader and with GELI or not included.

The ZFS Boot Environments feature on Linux - the thing that is DESIGNED to PROTECT you from any disasters (that it works on FreeBSD and Illumos) is one that is most fragile and uncertain on Linux.
