I'm trying to install 5.1 on a new pair of nvme SSDs using ZFS RAID1. Both drives have the most recent available firmware from Samsung, and both drives have 100% unallocated space with 0 partitions.
CLI output of the install shows the successful creation of GPT entries, but then stops on
Is there a pre-format requirement for ZFS as the OS filesystem? The wiki didn't seem to suggest so.
I also tried installing in debug mode to see if that would give me any more information. It got just as far in the installation process, created partitions, and gave a similar error as the first time around:
Edit: Nevermind. Just found this. Man. That's really disappointing. Has anyone successfully done this manually somehow?
