Thanks. I will look at this at some point soon, but not immediately. Now that OpenZFS 2.0 has landed in buster-backports, I need to review and update the Buster version. The bullseye one will probably be very similar, so I can review those together.

i just did an install, but haven't rebooted yet... https://anarc.at/hardware/tubman/ i'll report back if there's anything else that needs changing.

ah and, by the way, the buster procedure mostly works in bullseye, actually. the above changes are minor and maybe it would be worth merging the two. in any case, i can say this procedure worked for me and the machine rebooted fine (although without networking because i screwed up the interface(5) configuration):

https://anarc.at/hardware/tubman/

(it should be noted that eth0 doesn't exist after a reboot here, the correct interface was enp1s0. i think the procedure shouldn't use ifupdown, that say: we should use systemd-networkd as that's actually easier to configure and better integrated. i'll document that procedure when i figure it out. :)

You can check ethernet device name with udevadm test /sys/class/net/eth0/. After some updates I noticed that grub cannot recognize correct encrypted root path in /boot/grub/grub.cfg: root=ZFS=/ROOT/debian
P.S.: You can make fai hook for ZFS partitioning ;)

Well the thing with that is that it works only in relation with the Linux kernel environment you're currently booted in. If your live image, for example, disables the systemd naming thing (`net.ifnames=0`) and you *don't* pass that kernel commandline into the install, then you'll end up with a different interface anme.

Not sure what that refers to.

Yeah, I noticed that! It's too bad that it's not part of setup-storage though... I liked that I can just use that tool as a standalone to do most of the install work. ;) But yeah, maybe I finally need to get into FAI proper already... a.

it would also be nice to have remote unlock instructions (#46 )

faxm0dem · 2021-08-17T12:22:45Z

I'd like to install bullseye on root zfs. Is this patch a good start or is it out of date ?

faxm0dem

I just successfully tested the whole procedure for UEFI and ZFS encrypted.
It works like a charm, thanks a bunch!

anarcat · 2021-08-18T13:56:26Z

03bd1a4 seems to add an entirely new file, which makes this PR really hard to review.

faxm0dem · 2021-08-18T14:37:28Z

aren't all debian release instructions in separate files ?

anarcat · 2021-08-18T14:42:32Z

well right now we have those files in this pull request:

This seems like a duplicate. Am I missing something?

Sorry, it's really duplicate. It's fixed now.

LGTM, thanks for removing the dupe and the cleanup! :)

fwiw, i used a previous version of this guide for an install, and it worked mostly well, back when bullseye was testing, to answer your question more directly. so i guess this is all ready to go now...

BTW, how safe is upgrading from buster ?

Just worked for me following official upgrade guide https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.html

No issues whatsoever with your rpool and bpool ?

From Buster Installation with 2.0.3-9~bpo10+1 to Bullseye with 2.0.3-9 I didn't have any problems. I didn't tested it with on old (stretch) Installations.

Hi, thanks for the work
I want to set up a ZFS root for a Debian/Bullseye, is this proposal ready to be followed?

freezed · 2021-09-10T12:07:17Z

I just take a rapid look, these commits were made before bullseye goes stable.
I can push some commit fixing that.

Please make a PR to branch bullseye or just say here, what do you want to change, maybe it's usable right now to enable some update repos in sources.list

gmelikov · 2021-10-03T18:30:58Z

Sorry for long delay, we'll try to get back to ubuntu/debian howto this month (they reused same parts), and work this out.

faxm0dem · 2021-11-25T13:12:49Z

Hi https://openzfs.github.io/openzfs-docs/Getting%20Started/index.html still doesn't list bullseye.
Consider this a friendly reminder, with offer to help if I can :-D

gmelikov

Diffed with Buster howto, just some nits and we're good to go.

+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

+- `64-bit Debian GNU/Linux Bullseye Live CD w/ GUI (e.g. gnome iso)
+  <https://cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/cd-including-firmware/current-live/amd64/iso-hybrid/debian-live-11.0.0-amd64-standard+nonfree.iso>`__


It doesn't exist now, let's use previous variant

Suggested change

<https://cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/cd-including-firmware/current-live/amd64/iso-hybrid/debian-live-11.0.0-amd64-standard+nonfree.iso>`__

<https://cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/release/current-live/amd64/iso-hybrid/>`__

one problem with current-live is it will silently turn into bookworm when that (Debian 12) is released... I'm not sure there's a good way around that, because the version-specific link:

https://cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/release/11.1.0-live/amd64/iso-hybrid/

... includes the minor version number, which will change more frequently.

You're right, but we didn't have a problem with current-live in previous versions, so I propose to leave it.

+   Replace ``username`` with your desired username::
+
+     zfs create rpool/home/username
+     adduser username
+
+     cp -a /etc/skel/. /home/username
+     chown -R username:username /home/username

I propose to leave a variant from Buster with username in variable to minimize client's changes

Suggested change

Replace ``username`` with your desired username::

zfs create rpool/home/username

adduser username

cp -a /etc/skel/. /home/username

chown -R username:username /home/username

usermod -a -G audio,cdrom,dip,floppy,netdev,plugdev,sudo,video username

Replace ``YOUR_USERNAME`` with your desired username::

username=YOUR_USERNAME

zfs create rpool/home/$username

adduser $username

cp -a /etc/skel/. /home/$username

chown -R $username:$username /home/$username

usermod -a -G audio,cdrom,dip,floppy,netdev,plugdev,sudo,video $username

+   If you installed SSH earlier, revert the temporary change::
+
+     vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config


Let's remain sudo as in other parts of this section

Suggested change

vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config

sudo vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config

we don't do this anywhere else in the tutorial though, so that's a bit strange.

It may be a copy-paste from Ubuntu how-tos. Another way is to remove sudo entirely from this section, I'm ok with both ways for now.

i think i would favor that... but let's not make perfection the enemy of good here. :)
