# DebianZFS DebianZFS is a bash script that automates a UEFI Debian installation on an encrypted ZFS pool. The script installs `zfsutils-linux` on Debian Live, then proceeds to partition, create the boot and root zpools, and [debootstraps](https://wiki.debian.org/Debootstrap) a minimal system. Due to [licensing concerns with OpenZFS and Linux](https://openzfs.github.io/openzfs-docs/License.html), distributing the resulting binaries together in a disk image may be a copyright violation. However, nothing keeps you from legally building and keeping your own disk images. - Requires packer and qemu to build images ### Quick Start 1. Clone the repository and navigate into the directory ``` git clone https://git.krislamo.org/kris/debianzfs cd debianzfs ``` 2. Build image ``` make ``` 3. Copy qcow2 image to libvirt/images ``` sudo cp output/debianzfs.qcow2 /var/lib/libvirt/images/ ``` 4. Grab auto-generated passwords from the log ``` grep PW= debianzfs.log ``` 5. Make a Libvirt VM and start ``` sudo virt-install --name debianzfs \ --description 'Debian ZFS' \ --ram 2048 \ --vcpus 2 \ --disk /var/lib/libvirt/images/debianzfs.qcow2 \ --os-type generic \ --network bridge=virbr0 \ --graphics vnc,listen=127.0.0.1,port=5901 \ --boot uefi,loader=/usr/shar/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.fd ``` 6. If dropped into UEFI shell ``` Shell> FS0: FS0:\> EFI\debian\grubx64.efi ``` 7. If dropped into initramfs ``` zpool import -f rpool exit ``` 8. Enter rpool password 9. Login with root's password ### License - DebianZFS is licensed under 0BSD, a public domain equivalent license; see the `LICENSE` file for more information
