zfs. Recovery from drive clone gone wrong.
zfs: The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: zfs.
You must specify at least one word to search for. Each word must consist of at least 4 characters and must not contain more than 84 characters excluding wildcards.

I was looking for options to
clone/silver/mirror a ZFS dive
Mint 21.2 mate w/ ZFS & no encryption
Dell Latitude e6540
(& then expand the 480 SSD to 960)

1st thought was Clonezilla / UBCD & was a no-go.
Then the ZFS mirroring thought popped in.

This ZFS cloning topic has writeups from many w/ assumptions that gloss over details.

Every article assumed that you needed to install tools for ZFS commands.
Found an ubuntu writeup w/ simple, laid out details.

& when installing, I noticed libraries had been removed.
Took a screenshot..but..
Now booting into a dead end w/ a flashing
[Failed] Failed to start Bluetooth service.

LiveUSB I can see the drive in GParted,
(bpool & rpool)
but can't figure a way in.


Thanks folks!
