Hi Carsten, I'm glad you ended up posting this to the list. Very useful
info, even if I never end up using it.
The rest of this thread has some great content too.
Thanks all!

Actually, you can easily create an arch ISO with ZFS embedded into it. It's
what I do, and it takes about five minutes to create.

Sorry for letting gmail butcher wrapping/breaks. Someone at Google
needs to be demoted for that anti-feature. I should remember to never
edit in gmail's text box but use my normal editor as usual.
It almost looks like filesystem development doesn't fit Linux kernel
development style
of iterating constantly and evolving with time. btrfs has had the same
time as zfs
had in-house at Oracle before it was declared publicly stable, and
there are still
buggy/unfinished corners.

Please don't flame me for mention ZFS boot environments as a technique

Just to make sure; can you run a memtest on this machine? It's a bit of a

All,
I experienced a hard lockup during kernel update to 4.15.8 on a Supermicro
Dual Opteron Quad-core box. I've updated this box 50 times without issue, but
something caused a hardlock. The filesystems are on mdadm linux-raid 1
