Bug ID: 268100
Summary: 13.1's loader.efi is not able to find a ZFS pool if it
was checkpointed on 12.3
Product: Base System
Version: 13.1-RELEASE
Hardware: amd64
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: misc
Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
Reporter: ml@netfence.it
Hello.
Suppose you:
_ use UEFI;
_ boot from ZFS;
_ are on 12.3;
_ checkpoint the root pool;
_ upgrade to 13.1.
Now 13.1's loader.efi won't be able to find your pool and the machine won't
boot.
If you are lucky you'll be able to see "can not read checkpoint data", but this
message might scroll fast out of sight.
It would not be a big problem, if this was documented.
N.B.
The above checklist reflect my case, but it could possibly be relaxed (e.g. WRT
system versions) or narrowed (pool version or features?).
