Fri Dec 4 08:15:01 EST 2015 Went to bed at 10:45, slept well, and woke up before seven. Partly cloudy and forty-nine today. Good. Goals: Work: - Talk to Jason at HZ, configure switch No, he didn't call me, and it was too late in the day by the time I remembered. Maybe I asked him to call me Monday? I thought I said today. - Make sure accessibility features are turned on for the rds server, and send out an info email. I asked Scott to look into this. - Work on firefly virtualization Done. Significant progress. I created the vm, and I'm starting to move stuff over. Took a too short walk at lunch. The clouds disappeared, and it's a beautiful bright blue day. Home: - Work on personal server Plugged in a display and keyboard, and powered it up. It's nice and quiet, quieter than my workstation. Good. See below. - Check out Let's Encrypt Nope. Balls. FreeBSD 10.2 doesn't support UEFI booting to a root filesystem on zfs. https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=uefi&apropos=0&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+11-current&format=html boot1.efi cannot load loader.efi from a ZFS(8) file system. As a result, UEFI does not support a typical root file system on ZFS configuration. Also, the installer supports only either fully automatic partitioning or brutal gpart on the command line and manual fstab creation. I would think we could have a UFS /boot partition, with the rest on zfs....
