Re: Backporting ZFS installer support to kreebsd

 To achieve that, we would need to backport at least the following bug
 fixes and improvements. Note #635627 is already on its way to p-u (#637020):

 Bug #  -- package -- title
 635384 -- parted -- detection of ZFS volumes (ZVOL)

Colin et al, any chance this can make it to Squeeze point release?
It's the last non-DI package in Arno's list.

If you mean in to 6.0.3, is there any particular benefit to trying to
push that particular update at this late stage in the process, given
that the partman-* changes won't be included?  Might it not make more
sense to look at the remaining changes as a set for 6.0.4?

Regards,

Adam

For me, 6.0.4 seems more realistic as all that wouldn't need to  be
done in a rush.

 I didn't know if D-I followed the same release cycle.  Given your
 reply, now I assume it does.

d-i _in stable_ does, yes.  The only time anything in stable changes is
in a point release.  (The udeb packages might get uploaded to
proposed-updates in between, but there's no installer release that would
be built to use them, afaik).

Adam

Backporting ZFS installer support to kreebsd

2011-09-22 Thread Arno Töll
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hello everyone (please keep CCs:),

on behalf of the kreebsd porters I am trying to explore our
possibilities to improve ZFS (installer) support in a future Squeeze
point release.

To achieve that, we would need to backport at least the following bug
fixes and improvements. Note #635627 is already on its way to p-u (#637020):

Bug #  -- package -- title
635384 -- parted -- detection of ZFS volumes (ZVOL)
635398 -- partman-base -- humandev() support for ZFS volumes
637032 -- partman-target -- please allow /lib/modules mount points
635627 -- zfsutils -- zvol (ZFS volumes) should be available before
checkroot.sh
none -- partman-zfs -- Use a version  8 for volume management

In agreement with kfreebsd's technology status [1] I think we can
consider that possible for packages which are kfreebsd specific only. As
you can see, it would also affect packages in Linux, in particular
parted and partman (thus d-i). However, we don't expect any side effects
on Linux, as it mostly touches paths used by kfreebsd systems only.

I hereby request comments from maintainers of affected packages and the
release team in particular.
