-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Please see attachments. First I tried to use the default UFS-filesystem, but the result was a non-bootable system; this would clearly have required an ext3 boot-partition in order to be workable. Then with ZFS it was much nicer, grub can boot from that obviously; I did have the impression, that the write-performance is much better, the base-system was installed at least in half the time, it took with UFS. But it turned out, that the system is not running in a stable way. It does not shut down cleanly for example and the CPU-frequency-scaling does not work either. It was kind of adventurous to use ZFS on a 32-bit system with only 512MB RAM, but this is not the reason for the system-instability, I think, but it is probably powerd's fault. The primary virtual terminal is not usable, because it is running full of . .. timecounter TSC must not be in use when changing frequencies; change denied timecounter TSC must not be in use when changing frequencies; change denied .. . messages, when one waits too long the kernel-ringbuffer is filled with those and the boot-messages are gone. dfree.txt shows the output of 'df -Tl' upon enabling the default compression for ZFS and installing the XFCE desktop-environment. There does not seem to be much impact on read- or write-performance with the default-compression enabled although the CPU is not very fast, while the compression-ratio is good enough. When XFCE is starting up, one is greeted with the message 'Your system is not supported yet !'. An audio-driver seems to be missing for the SIS-chipset, which is not really an issue when using the box as a nano-home-server. It was possible to shut down the system cleanly by pressing the device's power-button once, but not with a software-shutdown. It was not possible to do 'reportbug installation-report', seemingly because of a segmentation fault, so I report the issues here and hope they are forwarded to the kFBSD people. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlK9RH0ACgkQ5+rBHyUt5wtePgCcDnFOsHBb9kD0wvaInt2KBFmH daAAoLvK32TJWY8XrMPAKbw1MBGCHoVq =DidV -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
