There was a bug where grub was unable to access files on zfs that contained holes: Bug ID 6541114 Synopsis GRUB/ZFS fails to load files from a default compressed (lzjb) root http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6541114 That has been fixed in snv_71. The description text is misleading, there was no issue with reading lzjb compressed files, the bug occurred when reading "hole" blocks from a zfs file. Grub is unable to read from gzip compressed zfs filesystems, though: Bug ID 6538017 Synopsis ZFS boot to support gzip decompression http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6538017 This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
