Offical ZFS on Linux [DKMS][dkms] style packages are available from the [Debian GNU/Linux repository](https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/zfs-linux) for the following configurations. The packages previously hosted at archive.zfsonlinux.org will not be updated and are not recommended for new installations.
**Debian Releases:** Sid (Eternal unstable)
**Debian Releases:** Jessie and newer (testing, sid)
**Architectures:** amd64
## Installation
For Debian Jessie, ZFS packages are provided by [backports](https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/).
Add jessie-backports repository (ZFS packages are in `contrib` area):
# echo "deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main contrib" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/backports.list
# apt update
Install kernel headers:
# apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
Install zfs packages:
# apt-get install -t jessie-backports zfs-dkms
If you want to boot from ZFS, you'll need `zfs-initramfs` package too:
# apt-get install -t jessie-backports zfs-initramfs
