Re: [gentoo-user] [OT] how to delete a directory tree really fast

2021-10-22 Thread Vitor Hugo Nunes dos Santos
The real solution would have been having a subvolume for the directory. Subvolume deletion on BTRFS is near instant. Same for ZFS with datasets, etc. October 22, 2021 9:50 AM, "Rich Freeman" wrote: > On Fri, Oct 22, 2021 at 8:39 AM Miles Malone > wrote: > >> small files... (Certainly dont

To expand on this even further: GRUB usage with ZFS, in my experience, requires the following patch: https://vhns.com.br/pix/grub-zfs-patch.html I took it from GRUB's mailling list. I don't really recall who wrote it. August 23, 2021 4:51 PM, "Vitor Hugo Nunes dos Santos" wrote:

Your root pool setup doesn't really matter for GRUB compatibility. What's important is that you have the proper features setup on your boot pool. That's the one GRUB loads. On Aug 23, 2021 12:24 PM, Rich Freeman wrote: > > On Mon, Aug 23, 2021 at 11:11 AM Neil Bothwick wrote: > > > > On Mon,
