== Unable to follow instructions from "Laying out the filesystem hierarchy" == | |||
I tried following the instructions from [[ZFS#Laying_out_the_filesystem_hierarchy]] but the system never fully booted and had errors about being unable to mount "/home" or "/root". | |||
The fix was to use a legacy mountpoint instead, while also reducing the number of ZFS data sets to a minimum and using "/" as a ZFS data set instead of tmpfs. | |||

# zfs create -o canmount=on rpool/nixos/var/persist | |||
