Stuck on my first root zfs install almost completed I ran into this issue but I checked zfsarchwiki supports kernel 6.2.1
DKMS is the best option if you really want to keep up with Arch updates and if you're experienced with Linux (for instance you know how to fix your system from the archiso if needed -- for ZFS you'll need to manually load the zfs module from the archiso; this script is very helpful).

Ubuntu 23.04 Desktop's New Installer Set To Ship Without OpenZFS Install Support
Make an EFI boot partition of maybe 200MB using your favorite distro iso and make a zpool on a second partition of the remaining space followed by a single dataset on that zpool named root at the minimum with normalization=formD, compression=lz4 or zstd and optional encryption flags and install your rootfs to that. I've found this process is easiest using the Archlinux ISO and this github project to get zfs in the archiso environment.

When root on ZFS breaks on Arch Linux
The script available there: https://github.com/eoli3n/archiso-zfs makes it extremely easy to add ZFS support to any Arch ISO after it has booted. You can copy any standard ISO to a USB drive, boot off it, then run `curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eoli3n/archiso-zfs/master/... | bash` and you'll have ZFS support in a few seconds, without having anything to worry about.

ZFS Noob Moral Support Needed
With Arch there is an easy way to get the iso to read ZFS with a simple script, it is a bit of a no no unless you verify the script before using it. https://github.com/eoli3n/archiso-zfs

ZFS or BTRFS for a server
My own experience is with ZFS, first on Arch Linux (using the excellent https://github.com/eoli3n/archiso-zfs). I learned a lot doing that and modifying the scripts to my liking.

Do you use Btrfs? Did you have any stability/performance issues?
You can load zfs modules in the archiso with: https://github.com/eoli3n/archiso-zfs

Need help with Arch Linux and ZFS
Because zfs isn't part of the mainline kernel -- you need to add the appropriate packages during the install process -- meaning you need to either boot from a standard Arch ISO install disk and then download the packages as explained here: https://github.com/eoli3n/archiso-zfs or you need to make a custom arch ISO where you add the zfs packages. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/ZFS#Create_an_Archiso_image_with_ZFS_support. The only issue with creating the custom ArchISO -- you need an actual basic arch installation somewhere to create the disk -- so basically you need a standard Arch installation to create a custom install disk whereby you can install an Arch zfs installation. Here are other good tutorials for this: https://ramsdenj.com/2016/06/23/arch-linux-on-zfs-part-1-embed-zfs-in-archiso.html

Hrmpf rescue system, built on Void Linux
Both ZFS updates and pacman breaking are rare enough that I forgot that would happen. Though using this rescue system would work, there's also a group that maintains a script to grab the correct ZFS module for a running archiso, might come in handy for you.

How to resolve kernel mismatch on Live USB with modprobe zfs-dkms?
You're having a problem due to archiso not updating every time the kernel updates, though you could fix this issue there's also just an easier way. The archzfs repo group has made a tool to grab the correct zfs module for the running kernel, see https://github.com/eoli3n/archiso-zfs

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS is so buggy you can't install the OS [video]
Be careful if you use ZFS-on-root, make sure not to snapshot bpool or it will brick your system and require a complete reinstall.

Radxa's SATA HAT makes compact Pi 5 NAS
> The only non-junk PCIe3 option that's even advertised here recently is the overpriced WD Red SN700.
Those WD drives seem to have some real issues, at least with ZFS and btrfs. :(

DiskClick: Ever wanted to hear Old Hard drive sounds
IMO the "next fs" is just zfs. They somewhat recently merged RAIDZ expansion feature https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/12225 and make regular improvements. If no file system has what you need today, zfs will probably be the first one to have it "tomorrow," imo.

A data corruption bug in OpenZFS?
https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/issues/15526#issuecomment-181...
> zpool get all tank | grep bclone
> kc3000 bcloneused 442M
> kc3000 bclonesaved 1.42G
> kc3000 bcloneratio 4.30x
> My understanding is this: If the result is 0 for both bcloneused and bclonesaved then it's safe to say that you don't have silent corruption.

Ask HN: What's your "it's not stupid if it works" story?
A couple years ago, I had an idea for convincing a filesystem to go faster using 2 compression steps instead of one. I couldn't see why it wouldn't work, and I also couldn't convince myself it should.
It seems to have worked out. [1]
