Hi,

Planning to create a ZFS NAS with RAIDz, the system has 4 SATA ports and all 
connect to HDD, no DVD-ROM, can boot from USB.

Would like to use all 4 HDD in RAIDz, so the question is where to install 
OpenSolaris(which cannot be on RAIDz, IIRC)?

Ideally, I would like to install onto a USB flash drive, is that possible? What 
is the capacity for such requirement? I have a 2GB, which apparently not enough 
for the installer.

Second alternative, partition the HDD, so each can have a slice for the RAIDz, 
then each have a slice which I can have a 2-way mirror. Will this work? All the 
recommendation seems to be use full disk, I am not sure if use slices is a good 
idea.

Suggestions?

Cheers,
Henry
