If I recall, the dump partition needed to be at least as large as RAM.
In Solaris 8(?) this changed, in that crashdumps streans were
compressed as they were written out to disk. Although I've never read
this anywhere, I assumed the reasons this was done are as follows:

cadaver decided to complain that the file was "too large".
This means that the DVD ISO won't get uploaded until I get to work

Please bear with me, as I am not very familiar with ZFS. (And
unfortunately probably won't have time to be until ZFS supports root

That's awesome!
So, to clarify... If I burn the b62_zfsboot.iso to a DVD and boot from it
with the intention of doing a fresh install
What are the correct steps to do the setup with a zfs mirrored boot? Follow
the installer? Follow the netinstall or Tom's instructions?
Thanks,

Hello-
I was planning on sending out a more formal sort of introduction in a

I will be porting ZFS to NetBSD this summer. Some info on this project
can be found at:
http://www.olix0r.net/bitbucket/index.cgi/netbsd/zfs
and
http://netbsd-soc.sf.ne
NetBSD could reuse Pawel's work on FreeBSD but it sits on top of GEOM,
something NetBSD does not have. It greatly helped the porting work as Pawel is
already a GEOM wizard (gmirror, gjournal and all that).
