Installing FreeBSD along with Void Linux

[tetsuo]

Hello,
I have Void Linux with a ZFS Root installed, it would be possible to create a FreeBSD subvolume on the zfs pool and boot it from GRUB without much problem? And if possible, use the same /home?

Might be possible, if the ZFS pool doesn't have a couple of Linux specific features turned on.

I advise even in this situation to use a small ufs partition with the freebsd bootloader.
With grub you can chainload.
Create all zfs partitions with linux, (which is older), in order to not have features which are not supported in linux.

It's quite the opposite if we're talking about FreeBSD 13.

On either system, create a pool with zpool create -o compatibility=openzfs-2.1-freebsd, which will exclude the feature incompatible with FreeBSD (edonr). It'll also prevent accidentally making the pool incompatible whenever zpool upgrade is ran.
