+ As ZFS support in the installer is still in development, only a basic
+ subset of ZFS features are supported. Some of them can be enabled
+ manually after the initial install, but there are some caveats:
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ Each ZFS pool will host only one filesystem. After install is finished,
+ more filesystems can be created on this pool by using the
+ <quote>zfs create</quote> command.
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ Each ZFS pool will be composed of exactly one partition. After install
+ is finished, a single-device ZFS pool can be converted into a multi-device
+ pool by using the <quote>zpool add</quote> command, or into a mirrored
+ pool by using the <quote>zpool attach</quote> command. However, you shouldn't
+ do this on the pool that hosts root filesystem, as it would prevent GRUB
+ from booting your system.
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ Compression is not currently supported. After the install is finished,
+ compression can be enabled by setting the <quote>compression</quote> property
+ via the <quote>zfs set</quote> command. However, if a compression algorithm
+ other than the default (lzjb) is used on the pool that hosts your root
+ filesystem, this may prevent GRUB from booting your system.
