Flag-day for ZFS boot support

Saturday, April 12. 2008

The support for booting from ZFS had it´s flag day yesterday. It looks like this will appear in build 88 for x86 and SPARC. I hope this find it´s way in Update 6 of Solaris, stopping this ever reoccuring question at presentation about this feature.

Define "flag day." In what build of Open Solaris should we expect to see this capability in a usable fashion? Sparc or X64 or both?

You find all this information in the provided link. It will be integrated to Build 88 and it´s for both architectures: Sparc and x86.

Then I'll be looking forward to a fresh install with b88!

Thanks for the update.

As stated in the flag day document :

"Further changes to the Install consolidation are required to install ZFS as the root file system. These changes are planned for Install build 89. Once these changes have ntegrated, we will release a heads up statement."

So, we must wait one more build to be able to install directly on ZFS.
