Hi,

I would like to know if there is an "official" howto that could help me in the process of installing zfs on root.

I will need a raid 1 configuration and plan to use the whole disks to be part of the pool.

How far can we go with the installer ?

Do I have to use gpart ?

What is best way to achieve this ?


Any recent and up to date pointer will be welcome.


Thx.

I have specifically used this documentation with great success:

You can also look at this link for more information:
