[oi-dev] oi-hipster live-cd with newest zpool features

[friedrich.kink at fkink.de]

Hi,

due to stupidity I killed my installation. How? I upgraded to the latest
oi-hipster snapshot and enabled the latest zpool feature (embedded_data).
So far so good but due to a problem with a zone i did a rollback of the
boot environment without further thinking and bingo system stopped
booting. Of course because the older kernel does not know about the new
zpool feature. As i did not find a live cd image supporting all zpool
features needed I tried to build one on my own using 'distro_const' using
an additional publisher (hipster). I did it on a Virtualbox VM using a
hipster install updated to latest snapshot. But this failed. After some
investigation I found out that the command "/usr/bin/pkg -R
/rpool/dc/build_data/pkg_image install --no-index --accept pkg:/entire
pkg:/slim_install pkg:/system/install/media/internal" stopped with a
segfault. The reason for this segfault is a memory leak in the pkg command
which after some time starts consuming memory until end of memory (did a
truss to find out also prstat showed increasing mem usage). Is this known?
Am I not allowed to use distro_const within a hipster install (because i
initially got a build 151a9?

Thanks in advance for any help,
  Fritz
