I was able to fix this error: E: mkinitramfs failure cpio 141 lz4 -9 -l 24
by deleting the snapshots that sanoid made *during* the installation process: sarnold@millbarge:/boot$ sudo zfs destroy bpool@autosnap_2020-01-24_04:00:05_hourly%autosnap_2020-01-24_08:45:05_frequently [sudo] password for sarnold: sarnold@millbarge:/boot$ sudo zfs destroy bpool/BOOT@autosnap_2020-01-24_04:00:05_hourly%autosnap_2020-01-24_08:45:05_frequently sarnold@millbarge:/boot$ sudo zfs destroy bpool/BOOT/ubuntu@autosnap_2020-01-24_04:00:05_hourly%autosnap_2020-01-24_08:45:05_frequently sarnold@millbarge:/boot$ df -h .
