I'd generalise this to be, never use cap-eye Install until you really really really know what you are doing and are 100% certain that your changes don't impact anything in userland. You are correct that part of zfs lives in userland and there is intimate knowledge between the user and kernel parts. -- Darren J Moffat _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
