## Basic setup
|
|
1. Install `zfs-dracut`
|
|
2. Set `mountpoint=/` for your root dataset (for compatibility, `legacy` also works, but is not recommended for new installations):
|
|
```sh
|
|
zfs set mountpoint=/ pool/dataset
|
|
```
|
|
3. Either (a) set `bootfs=` on the pool to the dataset:
|
|
```sh
|
|
zpool set bootfs=pool/dataset pool
|
|
```
|
|
4. Or (b) append `root=zfs:pool/dataset` to your kernel cmdline.
|
|
5. Re-generate your initrd and update it in your boot bundle
|
|
|
|
Encrypted datasets have keys loaded automatically or prompted for.
|
|
|
|
If the root dataset contains children with `mountpoint=`s of `/etc`, `/bin`, `/lib*`, or `/usr`, they're mounted too.
|
|
|
|
For complete documentation, see `dracut.zfs(7)`.
|
|
|
|
## cmdline
|
|
1. `root=` | Root dataset is… |
|
|
---------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
*(empty)* | the first `bootfs=` after `zpool import -aN` |
|
|
`zfs:AUTO`, `zfs:`, `zfs` | *(as above, but overriding other autoselection methods)* |
|
|
`ZFS=pool/dataset` | `pool/dataset` |
|
|
`zfs:pool/dataset` | *(as above)* |
|
|
|
|
All `+`es are replaced with spaces (i.e. to boot from `root pool/data set`, pass `root=zfs:root+pool/data+set`).
|
|
|
|
The dataset can be at any depth, including being the pool's root dataset (i.e. `root=zfs:pool`).
|
|
|
|
`rootfstype=zfs` is equivalent to `root=zfs:AUTO`, `rootfstype=zfs root=pool/dataset` is equivalent to `root=zfs:pool/dataset`.
|
|
|
|
2. `spl_hostid`: passed to `zgenhostid -f`, useful to override the `/etc/hostid` file baked into the initrd.
|
|
|
|
3. `bootfs.snapshot`, `bootfs.snapshot=snapshot-name`: enables `zfs-snapshot-bootfs.service`,
|
|
which creates a snapshot `$root_dataset@$(uname -r)` (or, in the second form, `$root_dataset@snapshot-name`)
|
|
after pool import but before the rootfs is mounted.
|
|
Failure to create the snapshot is noted, but booting continues.
|
|
|
|
4. `bootfs.rollback`, `bootfs.rollback=snapshot-name`: enables `zfs-rollback-bootfs.service`,
|
|
which `-Rf` rolls back to `$root_dataset@$(uname -r)` (or, in the second form, `$root_dataset@snapshot-name`)
|
|
after pool import but before the rootfs is mounted.
|
|
Failure to roll back will fall down to the rescue shell.
|
|
This has obvious potential for data loss: make sure your persistent data is not below the rootfs and you don't care about any intermediate snapshots.
|
|
|
|
5. If both `bootfs.snapshot` and `bootfs.rollback` are set, `bootfs.rollback` is ordered *after* `bootfs.snapshot`.
|
|
|
|
6. `zfs_force`, `zfs.force`, `zfsforce`: add `-f` to all `zpool import` invocations.
|
|
May be useful. Use with caution.
