Of course if there's no sensitive data that needs encryption, you can just boot up into the old format, create a new, non-encrypted dataset and start moving files over. Once done, boot into new format, create an encrypted pool and move files over again.

According to a [https://discourse.nixos.org/t/install-report-from-new-user/1390/5?u=walter 2018-11-08 post]: ''We had zfs in past in the default installer, but removed it due some people having concerns regarding the license. Realistically I don’t see any company soon to sue us for that. I guess somebody could sneak in an iso image automatically build on travis-ci or so and hope for the best. I would always recommend with zfsonlinux and systemd to use the legacy mounts. Automounts are probablematic until we have a way to inform systemd that orders all the mounts to be aware of the zfs pools.''
