I’ve been running FreeBSD 9.1 now for a while but for different reasons I would like to migrate to Ubuntu.
However, I have a few ZFS pools that I would like to bring with me…
I exported one of them (just to try) from FreeBSD (zpool export backup) and tried to import it in Ubuntu (sudo zpool import backup).
The original mount point was on /backup/ and it shows up in the “new” backup folder I created on the Ubuntu system. However, when viewing the disk it shows up as a binary file and not as a file system.
I can’t cd into the tree structure. I can however use ls –l to find my way into the tree structure and then cp files out of there.
Any ideas?
