Migrating ZFS on Linux pools to FreeBSD

[Ruben Schade]

Matthew, Brandon, Krad and Anders,

Thanks for all your tips, really appreciated.

Fortunately, I had the luck without hindsight to set flags for my ZFS 
pools that were compatible with FreeBSD, confirmed by using the FreeBSD 
boot media and attaching from a shell. I'm running 10.2-RELEASE now, and 
my pools work great.

Today I learned, thanks :)

A real bummer Solaris is in the hands of Oracle now (well, pre-fork). 
GELI works fine, but native ZFS encryption and the other features since 
Solaris 11 on *BSD and illumos would be great.
