</div></div>Thanks for mentioning this. It sounds like the best thing since sliced<br>
bread. The fly in the ointment is the CDDL licensing incompatibility<br>
with the gpl, so it can't go directly in the linux kernel.<br>
<br>
Here's an article from IBM on how to use it with zfs-fuse.<br>

<br>
This article from wikipedia says that it is gentoo and ubuntu that have<br>
the best support and documentation for zfs.<br>

The official zfsonlinux development site, <a href="http://zfsonlinux.org/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://zfsonlinux.org/</a> ,<br>
says that DKMS packages are available for Fedora at<br>
<a href="http://zfsonlinux.org/fedora.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://zfsonlinux.org/fedora.html</a><br>
It still is talking about yum, but the commands probably would work<br>
with dnf.<br>
<br>
But, I don't think anaconda will install to a zfs file system, so it<br>
would be necessary to create the zfs partitions from an installed<br>
version of Fedora, and copy or rsync with the appropriate command an<br>
already installed Fedora to get Fedora installed on a zfs file system.<br>
<br>
That license incompatibility.<br>
