install to standard debian buster fails #9547

What does the syslog say about the failed service zfs-mount? Does |
syslog says reason is that zfs module is not loaded, and i can load the module, then manually start the services, so the only issue is the install fails because the modules are not loaded.. And then loading the modules at boot never occurs.. it should be easy to reproduce by installing to a debian system with no previous zfs installation.. I tried compiling from source and creating .deb installers for all the services and the same thing occurs |
The issue here is that the zfs modules are loaded by a I'm not sure what the best solution is here. One option would be to separate out the |
As i understand, ubuntu has zfs modules in kernel because they choose to ignore the licence issues, or am i wrong? It's a really annoying situation in that sense. Maybe it would be a good idea to look closer how Proxmox deals with ZFS, i've worked alot with PVE and their debian based ZFS implementation just works, right now they are running kernel 5.x with full SIMD support, and have a working ZFS installer as well. I'll go ahead and close this if there are no more comments in awhile, thx |

I am not an expert, and unable to decode this. But i install a standard Debian Buster on XFS filesystem, and then i go to the ZFS Wiki, and read Getting started - Debian, and follow the instructions, and it does NOT work.
After that the zfs modules do NOT load at boot. update-initramfs -u does not help. I don't know how to get the modules to load.
Question: can having the backports in repos affect the system when installing other packages? If so, it's a terrible idea, as i'd like to keep my system as close to standard as possible
If i install Proxmox there is no problems, ZFS runs fine with AES-NI support. Why does it has to be this difficult? The install procedure should be:
apt install zfs --yes
I would suggest you hold on developing further until you are able to come up with a working installer for Debian yes? Everytime i update my systems i'm scared that ZFS in particular will screw up my system. because months and years go by and there's always some problem, issue or error, and to be frank i'm very disappointed with how you have handled all this, I'm not a linux expert, and ZFS on Linux has been a constant nightmare for years.
