Please find attached the debconf templates for partman-zfs, the D-I component that will be used to setup ZFS on kFreeBSD systems. These templates are sometimes very similar to partman-lvm templates, but some are brand new and might need the eye of a native speaker..:-) I did my best but, of course, I certainly failed here or there...:) (please keep -boot CC'ed to answers) --

# :sl4:
Description: Separate /boot mandatory for this ZFS configuration
The ZFS pool where your root file system is hosted is configured to use more
than one physical volume.
.
With the exception of Mirror mode, configurations with multiple volumes
(Striped or RAID-Z) are not supported by the boot loader.
.
You should use a separate /boot partition in another ZFS
pool in Mirror mode or with another file system, such as UFS.
Template: partman-zfs/multipv_boot

# :sl4:
Description: Unsupported multiple volume ZFS for /boot
The ZFS pool where your /boot file system is hosted is configured to use more
than one physical volume.
.
With the exception of Mirror mode, configurations with multiple volumes
(Striped or RAID-Z) are not supported by the boot loader.
.
The /boot partition should use a separate ZFS pool or another
file system, such as UFS.
Template: partman-zfs/i386
Type: boolean
# :sl4:
_Description: Go back to the menu and correct this problem?
You have configured one or more partitions with the ZFS file
system. Although ZFS is supported on 32-bit i386, using it without
special tuning may lead to performance or stability problems
due to limitations of this architecture.
.
You should either use the 64-bit (amd64) version of this
installer (if your hardware supports this), or go back to the
partitioning menu and configure the partitions to use another
file system.
Template: partman-zfs/lowmem
Type: boolean
# :sl4:
_Description: Go back to the menu and correct this problem?
You have configured one or more partitions with the ZFS file
system. Using ZFS on a computer with less than 512 Mb of memory
may lead to stability problems and is not recommended.
.
You should go back to the partitioning menu and configure
the partitions to use another file system.

_Description: Write the changes to disk and configure ZFS?
Before ZFS can be configured, the current
partitioning scheme has to be written to disk. These changes cannot
be undone.
.
After ZFS is configured, no additional changes
to the partitioning scheme of disks containing physical volumes are
allowed during the installation. Please decide if you are satisfied
with the current partitioning scheme before continuing.

Template: partman-zfs/help
Type: note
# :sl4:
_Description: ZFS
A common situation for system administrators is to find that some disk
partition (usually the most important one) is short on space, while some
other partition is underused. ZFS can help with this.
.
ZFS allows combining disk or partition devices ("physical volumes") to form
a virtual disk ("ZFS pool"), which can then be divided into virtual
partitions ("logical volumes"). ZFS pools and logical volumes may span
across several physical disks. New physical volumes may be added to a ZFS pool
at any time, and logical volumes have no size limit other than the total
size of the ZFS pool.
.
The items on the ZFS configuration menu can be used to edit ZFS pools
and logical volumes. After you return to the main partition manager screen,
logical volumes will be displayed in the same way as ordinary partitions,
and should be treated as such.
