What's a good choice for a decently stable upgrade? I'm unable to run backups because ZFS send/receive won't do full-pool replication reliably, it hangs better than 2/3 of the time, and people here have told me later versions (later than 111b) fix this. I was originally waiting for the "spring" release, but okay, I've kind of given up on that. This is a home "production" server; it's got all my photos on it. And the backup isn't as current as I'd like, and I'm having trouble getting a better backup. (I'll do *something* before I risk the upgrade; maybe brute force, rsync to an external drive, to at least give me a clean copy of the current state; I can live without ACLs.)

I find various blogs with instructions for how to do such an upgrade, and they don't agree, and each one has posts from people for whom it didn't work, too. Is there any kind of consensus on what the best way to do this is?
