** Description changed: I boot from ZFS since the begin of the year. I have a multi-boot situation with: - Ubuntu 19.10 with Virtualbox booting from ZFS - - Ubuntu Mate 19.10 with QEMO/KVM booting from ZFS + - Ubuntu Mate 19.10 with QEMU/KVM booting from ZFS - Ubuntu 19.10 booting from ext4 I have two problems with zfs: - the last update of zfs failed, because the dataset "/" was not empty. Of course it was not empty, it contained the second OS e.g. Ubuntu Mate. - during startup my datapools were not mounted, that is a regression, since approx a month I have that issue. Both I can solve by changing the mountpoint for the other system from "/" to e.g. "/systems/roots/mate". Afterwards the update has been executed without problems and the system rebooted with the datapools mounted as expected. - I think "zfs mount -a" should either + I think "zfs mount -a" should either - NOT try to mount datasets with mountpoint "/", except their own system or - change the error into a warning and continue the mount process or - - set the mountpoints in /boot/grub.cfg by changing etc/grub.d/10_linux_zfs. The advantage of the last one is, that the other OS is accessible by a file manager, exactly like in ext4 multi-boot situations. + - set the mountpoints in /boot/grub.cfg by changing etc/grub.d/10_linux_zfs. The advantage of the last one is, that the other OS is accessible by a file manager, exactly like in an ext4 multi-boot situations.
