zfs discuss - Jun 2006 - ZFS root install

I have posted a blog http://solaristhings.blogspot.com/ on how I have configured
a zfs root partition on my laptop. It is a slightly modified version of
Tabriz''s blog
http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/tabriz?entry=are_you_ready_to_rumble

The main differences, is that I only require a very small ufs partition for
grub, and I detail how to use a zfs clone as a test root partition.

Doug,

Very nice setup!  As you mention, more notes would be very helpful, but 
very neat stuff!
 
Thanks,
Tabriz

My latest blog details the steps needed to access your zfs root filesystem from
miniroot. It would probably be wise if you set this up before you need it :)
