ZFS: Difference between revisions

Line 11:

Newer kernels might not be supported by ZFS yet. If you are running a kernel which is not officially supported by ZFS, the module will refuse to evaluate and show an error. With that being said, NixOS does support a number of kernel versions that are compatible with ZFS, and while it is important to understand these details on compatibility, they should not be taken as a deterrent from using ZFS on NixOS.

You can pin to a newer kernel version explicitly, but note that this version may be dropped by upstream and in <code>nixpkgs</code> prior to ~~zfs~~ supporting the next version. See [[Linux kernel]] for more information, including which kernel versions <code>nixpkgs</code> provides.
