Hi.
First - Thanks very much for releasing this as a patch and not making us wait
until U8. It's very much appreciated. Things we put on hold can start moving
again which is a good thing.
Is there further documentation on this yet? I haven't been able to find it, and
it looks like most of the interesting stuff is in 'pfinstall' so I can't just
go look and see how it works.. I have a couple of questions on how zfsroot
interacts with flash install - I'm happy to go figure it out if you can point
me at the docs.. Failing that, hopefully someone can help me answer the below
questions.
on our zfs root systems, we like to keep /var as a separate dataset on servers
so we can monitor it's usage. We did that before with the line:
bootenv installbe bename zfsroot dataset /var
additional datasets I create in a finish script.
Can a zfsroot flash installed system have a separate dataset for /var?
It seems a little counter intuitive to me to say
partitioning explicit
when everything is going into a zfs pool with a single dataset - are there
other profile tokens that make this.
One last thing - My flash installs are working, but I'm ending up with /tmp as
a non tmpfs filesystem (no vfstab entry for it..) I can easily fix this in a
postinstall/finish script, but if there is a reason it's not happening that can
be fixed in my JS profile, that would be better.
Thanks again.

Thanks for the info. Hope that the pfinstall changes to support zfs root flash
jumpstarts can be extended to support luupgrade -f at some point soon.
BTW, where can I find an example profile? do I just substitute in the
install_type flash_install
archive_location ...
for
install_type initial_install
??
Here's a sample:
install_type flash_install
archive_location nfs schubert:/export/home/lalt/mirror.flar
partitioning explicit
pool rpool auto auto auto mirror c0t1d0s0 c0t0d0s0
