Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Booting Hipster from > 2 TB disks ???
Hi I was able to install OI on a raidz2 pool via the installer. On 4TB disks. However the OS throws a error 48 when trying to mount the zpool and thus panics. I have not figured out why but it is suggested that this may be a bug in the kernel. Meaning it can not use raidz2 as rpool. maybe raidz1 works.

Hi Reginald AFAIK this was the very reason we switched to loader. RAIDZ has been mentioned as supported unfortunately I have not tired it. I will install my > 2 TB System tomorrow So I can report back once that runs. Greetings Till On 13.12.2017 23:28, Reginald Beardsley via openindiana-discuss wrote: > Is this possible?
