Cronist said:also what about oracle support? is there any development about it?
Cronist said:we know that freebsd is supporting ZFS on FreeBSD 7.X. but there is no support on at the installation. is there any good news about it?
trasz@ said:Yes, it is possible to have your root filesystem on ZFS, as described here: http://wiki.freebsd.org/ZFSOnRoot. However, it's not yet possible to do this from the installer.
Checked, this is my work, too!hedwards said:I used these instructions:

Thanks then. It's probably one of the most straight through how-tos I've seen in a while. But that being said I look forward to the porting work being done and being able to dust bin it.felix said:Checked, this is my work, too!
rink@ said:We run Oracle in production at work on FreeBSD 6.x, and it works fine as long as you apply the patch in kern/102956. We're currently about to install Oracle on a 7.x box, but no results as of yet
And FWIW, http://rink.nu/entry.php?id=105 contains instructions about how to install FreeBSD on ELI-encrypted ZFS. I use this to keep my laptop secure, and it works amazingly well.
