I am about to upgrade from 14.3 to 15.0 on my most important machine, the one that I use as my desktop and additionally has got poudriere on. So I will be careful and create BEs.
It occurs to me that bectl has a limit of use.
15.0 has the next version of zfs. If I upgrade to 15.0, change the loader.efi and do a complete poudriere and upgrade the packages, and then don't like it, I can still get back to a previous BE. But if anywhere along the line I upgrade zfs, and then find something I don't like about 15.0, I presume I won't be able to get back.
I think I will do everything, but wait a week or so before I upgrade zfs.
