Hi endeavour folks,
I know that ZFS isn’t officially supported in the install or anything, don’t worry. but I would like to make a suggestion for the installer ISO for those of us using ZFS-based systems and using the live ISO for recovery purposes.
the problem: when installing the endeavour zfs-dkms package inside of the live environment as a precursor to importing a pool or doing other operations, it fails because it’s looking for the current running kernel under /boot/vmlinuz-linux
. the actual location of the kernel file is under /lib/modules/${kernel_version}/something
.
Now, I’d love to have the zfs dkms and tools installed by default in the live environment, that’d be a big quality of life improvement for folks like me. However, I assume there’s a reason that isn’t the case already (licensing issues maybe?). so! could we get the kernel location symlinked to that default location under /boot
that the dkms package is looking for, so it’s easier for folks to just install the dkms package and proceed? it’d be a very small change that’d make dealing with ZFS systems a lot less hassle.
thanks!
