Canonical seem to be happy shipping ZFS with Ubuntu these days, so I'm not
sure why Oracle don't do the same. I always assumed it was because they
wanted to keep their version of ZFS (ie pool versions 29 and higher) as
Solaris-only... (not to mention that the ZFS on Linux project isn't
something they can control).
Cheers, MJ
