that was 1-2 years ago. So it might work now. But I have not yet seen
any installation with RAIDZ2 as root it's quite rare.

I did an install of 2020.10 from a text USB stick on an HP NL40 with a 4x 2 TB
RAIDZ2 root pool this morning without any issues.
My Z840 showed up and things have not gone well. After a bit of BIOS fubar I
was able to create a RAIDZ2 pool, but the pseudo device names were very long.
It is my understanding that we can now boot from a RAIDZ pool. Are there any
known limitations? I looked at the wiki and I didn't see any instructions
related to booting from a RAIDZ pool or installing into a RAIDZ pool.
It looks pretty straight forward, but there are some details that
My use cases for VMs are running CAD and EDA software on Win 7 and Debian and
Firefox on Hipster so a local display is essential.
I have no application for a server other than to do backups.

Robert's suggestion of Anaconda got me to thinking about maintaining some IPS
packages for OI.
I typically build from source and have an /app tree with symlinks from bin,
lib, etc to the actual files so I can flip from one release to another with a
couple of commands. I've used the scheme

I'm about to set up an HP Z840 with 1x 14 core E5-2690 V4, a 4x 4 TB RAIDZ2
array and 4x 16 GB ECC DIMMs.
The dbx implementation in the Oracle/Sun/Forte compiler suite is the only
debugger I've encountered which will evaluate F77 intrinsics on the command
line. This is immensely valuable to
To summarize:
I swapped PSUs and graphics cards including putting the card from #3 in #4
I booted from the 2020.10 hard disk and Live Image
I swapped the KVM cables and ports
I tried the other PCIe slot that will take the graphics card.
I put a scope on the 5 V and 12 V rails.
After all
I have a pair of almost identical Z400s. (In total I have 4.) One has 4x 2 GB
DIMMs (#3) and the other has 2x 8 GB DIMMs (#4) . Both have Quadro FX 1800
cards and trayless SATA bays. Both are connected to the monitor through an 8
port KVM switch.
Hipster 2020.10 was installed on system #3.
OK guys, I think I know where to look now. Thanks!
With a recipe from Andy Fiddaman I was able to build format(1m). It took rather
a long time to get things set up, so I decided to pull the trigger on a
replacement for my aging Z400s.
I just bought an HP Z840 on ebay with a 14 core E5-2690
Kent,
Thank you for a very informative reply.
My interest is a desktop. Were there seismic work I'd be interested in a
server. Actually, a lot of them. But that world is dominated now by Linux and
with almost no revenue in the seismic industry, that won't change. Because most
