Hi all,
I have set up a FreeBSD server that boots from zfs, using this guide: https://www.dan.me.uk/blog/2010/02/08/booting-from-zfs-raid0156-in-freebsd/.
Inside my pool, I have added the following partitions:
On my /etc/fstab I have some entries that perform nullfs mounting of some jailed filesystems, like this:
The thing is that when the system boots and init tries to mount these filesystems, it fails by giving me the following error:
When I press RETURN and give:
everything works just fine.
This means that my /etc/fstab entries are fine, but when the system tries to find /jail it fails because it is not mounted at that time. If I comment all entries in /etc/fstab that have to do with my jail setup, all my zfs filesystems are mounted as should.
excerpt from /etc/rc.conf:
/boot/loader.conf reads:
Thank you all for your time in advance.

On my /etc/fstab I have some entries that perform nullfs mounting of some jailed filesystems, like this:
Code:
head -10 /etc/fstab

/jails/s/apache /jails/j/apache/s nullfs ro 0 0
The thing is that when the system boots and init tries to mount these filesystems, it fails by giving me the following error:
Code:
...blabla
Mounting local file systems: mount: /jails/j: No such file or directory
.
Mounting /etc/fstab filesystems failed, startup aborted
...blabla
Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh:
When I press RETURN and give:
# zfs mount -a && mount -a && exit
everything works just fine.
This means that my /etc/fstab entries are fine, but when the system tries to find /jail it fails because it is not mounted at that time. If I comment all entries in /etc/fstab that have to do with my jail setup, all my zfs filesystems are mounted as should.
excerpt from /etc/rc.conf:
