While I agree about the
While I agree about the tiny, insular, hostile community, I have to say that not everyone there is like that. Just some individuals, but unfortunately more then I would like. It is more pronounced because of how small the commmunity is. The IRC chanels for example have under 100 users.. sometimes under 50.
The non solaris ZFS implementations are very buggy, that is a known fact and is advertised by the implementors of them. They warn against using them until they are ready, if you want ZFS use solaris.
As for getting it to run... admittedly solaris crashes, and getting it installed and confiugred is like pulling teeth, but once you have it you are golden.
