> 
>  * When loading the module, only sleep five secs if it didn't fail.
>  * A failed load of the zfs module shouldn't be critical but instead
>    fail silently - zfs is not a requirenment for installation. (2013-05-12 15:20:54 +0200)

> Turbo Fredriksson (1):
>      * All sub filesystems (all datasets below the root fs dataset) will have
>        mountpoint=legacy, to make them mountable on boot - only the root fs is
>        mounted in the initrd.
>      * fs_create() now sets mountpoint=none by default, to make sure we
>        can change it afterwards. It might fail if - when - the fs is
>        mounted by the create but can't be unmounted when mountpoint is set.
>        + Cleanup and false/true correction of fs_create().
>      * Add some support functions - create_disk() and create_partition()
>        taken from partman-md. This will be needed when/if parted gets ZFS
>        support (base idea is to have it 'fake' a dataset as a device).

God gave man both a penis and a brain,
but unfortunately not enough blood supply
to run both at the same time.
