Neither the installer nor the GRUB that shipped with squeeze support multi-device arrays. Latest GRUB (in upstream Bazaar, not sure if trunk or some branch) supports multi-device ZFS however. > So how do you reckon the RAID1 configuration should be set up? You can setup a single-disk zpool and convert it to zRAID1 afterwards (with "zpool attach"). >> - Gzip compression is not supported. [...] > > Great! What's the current status of this? It's supported now (in upstream). -- Robert Millan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
