Doubtless it doesn't count, but an old version of the LLNL HPC-oriented GNU/Linux distribution which incorporates ZFS is at <ftp://gdo-lc.ucllnl.org/pub/projects/chaos/5.1/SRPMS/>. (I don't know if the RHEL7-derived one is published.) There's another from a US lab that you may have heard of <http://ftp2.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6x/>. There is a distribution of Linux by a US corporation with CDDL modules <http://yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL7/UEKR3/x86_64/index_src.html> for their general purpose GNU/Linux distribution. >> Please do some research before actually saying things > > likely i did much more research than you can even imagine long before > that thread started At least knowing about LLNL when sounding off about ZFS could stop someone looking foolish. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
