The script and my example are attached below.

So now you too can be a *Nix guru and boot from Zfs.

I turned my back on M$ Window$ circa 2000. Didn't hurt much as my milk language was VMS on VAX.

kinda dates me a bit

VMS was good stuff. I liked DCL and it's automatic file versioning.

Hehe I use zfs on my nas, pools and snapshots and scrubs and all. Really a great filesystem one you get the hang of it.

LOL at the shell script (I mean it's pretty geeky)

I prefer ZFS on *BSD, not Linux, it certainly is good stuff.

Yeah, my NAS is BSD, I love it.

Wish I could find a little starter coarse about Linux to give me a jump start. I started with MicroSoft DOS & then jumped to Windows 95-98 both editions- 2000 Pro-XP-Windows 7 and ran that as long as I dared before switched to 10. I built computers, up-grade them and now I'm almost 76 YO and tired of the game. I want to settle into the KISS Theory & mellow out and chill with something simple. Tired of the Rat-Race. LOL

I started with commodore then Amiga then dos and windows 3.1 so when I found Slackware and the text installer I was comfortable with it.

Yeah I looked at and thought about Commodore but at that stage I had too much on my plate as a husband and father and not enough money to go around so I had to wait. And after I bought a Packard Bell Dos computer shortly after is when 3.1 came out. Story of my life I should have waited just a little longer. LOL
