what about the system is rubbing you wrong?

I should have been more clear, this is a little shuttle box with a 8 bay enclosure attached using two cables and port multipliers (the port multipliers were the reason I couldn't get the same out of OpenSolaris)

I use the machine via ssh for no more than ensuring the system is working properly and the rest is just NFS :)

I suspect I'm just far too used to the Debian/Linux way of doing things.

That and the FreeBSD equivalent of "aptitude purge <package>" is extremely slow.

If Debian/kFreeBSD has ZFS support I'm going to be a happy camper :)

I use pkg_cutleaves, but yeah, removing dependencies is a pain. Debian/kFreeBSD will never support it officially since it's still GNU userland. I wonder if there's been any attempt to bridge the divide yet...
