-============================ ZFS QUICK START ============================
-
-1) Build the SPL (Solaris Porting Layer) and install it.  This package
-   provides several Solaris APIs used by ZFS and is a required dependency.
-   Before building ZFS build this package and install the resulting rpms.
-
-> tar -xzf spl-x.y.z.tgz
-> cd spl-x.y.z
-> ./configure --with-linux=<kernel src>
-> make
-> make rpm
-
-> sudo rpm -Uvh *.<arch>.rpm

-2) Build ZFS and install it.  This package provides the native port of
-   ZFS for Linux including all kernel modules and command line utilities.
-   Note it is important that you have installed spl-module-devel package
-   from step 1) before attempting to build ZFS.
-
-> tar -xzf zfs-x.y.z.tgz
-> cd zfs-x.y.z
-> ./configure --with-linux=<kernel src>
-> make
-> make rpm
-
-> sudo rpm -Uvh *.<arch>.rpm

-3) Enjoy ZFS on Linux!  Currently only the ZVOL is fully functional
-   but work on the ZPL is underway.  Why is just having the ZVOL still
-   useful you ask?  Well here's an example of what you can do today using
-   just the ZVOL:
-
-> # Create the 'tank' zpool containing a raidz vdev spread over 4 devices.
-> zpool create tank raidz /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd /dev/sde
-> zpool list
-NAME   SIZE   USED  AVAIL    CAP  HEALTH  ALTROOT
-tank  1.81T   132K  1.81T     0%  ONLINE  -
-
-> # Create a 100G block device named 'fish' in the 'tank' zpool.
-> zfs create -V 100G tank/fish
-> zfs list
-NAME        USED  AVAIL  REFER  MOUNTPOINT
-tank        100G  1.24T  26.9K  /tank
-tank/fish   100G  1.33T  23.9K  -
-
-> # Partition 'tank/fish' as if it were a normal block device.
-> sfdisk /dev/tank/fish << EOF
-0,
-EOF
-> sfdisk -l /dev/tank/fish
-
-Disk /dev/tank/fish: 208050 cylinders, 16 heads, 63 sectors/track
-Units = cylinders of 516096 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0
