  • archiso-zfs

    Easily load ZFS kernel module on any Archiso.

    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.

  • Linux_ZFS_Root

    Commands/script to install Linux on ZFS root

    You can install following instructions at https://openzfs.github.io/openzfs-docs/Getting%20Started/Debian/Debian%20Bullseye%20Root%20on%20ZFS.html which I've automated with https://github.com/HankB/Linux_ZFS_Root/tree/master/Debian. For scripting, you should also look at https://github.com/zbm-dev/zfsbootmenu. I'd probably go that way if I were starting from scratch.

  • zfsbootmenu

    ZFS Bootloader for root-on-ZFS systems with support for snapshots and native full disk encryption

    You can install following instructions at https://openzfs.github.io/openzfs-docs/Getting%20Started/Debian/Debian%20Bullseye%20Root%20on%20ZFS.html which I've automated with https://github.com/HankB/Linux_ZFS_Root/tree/master/Debian. For scripting, you should also look at https://github.com/zbm-dev/zfsbootmenu. I'd probably go that way if I were starting from scratch.

  • ubuntu-server-zfsbootmenu

    Ubuntu zfsbootmenu install script

    https://github.com/Sithuk/ubuntu-server-zfsbootmenu I've been using this with success in my last few installs

  • httm

    Interactive, file-level Time Machine-like tool for ZFS/btrfs/nilfs2 (and even Time Machine and Restic backups!)

    What's so disappointing is that they were 90% of the way there. They still could make some form of zsys work. And they could have added upstack support to ZFS, like GNOME integration much like OpenSolaris once had. They could have added really interesting autosave-like versioning integrations like ounce.
