Hi forum
I've been having a simple FreeBSD desktop, 13.2-RELEASE-p8 with zfs filesystem on ssd. Default zpool=zroot.
Have now done fresh install of 14.0-RELEASE onto a newer and larger ssd, with zfs and default pool.
When installing the 14.0, I kept the old ssd disconnected to ensure risk-free fallback in case of any disappointment.
Now that I have 14.0 basically running, how do I mount the "old" ssd (safely read only ?) so I can conveniently copy some files to the updated desktop ?
Not using any raid, or snapshot/s.
Sorry I don't yet have a working knowledge of zfs concepts and commands, and I couldn't quite find a solution to my question on this page.
