## Partitioning the Disk
Esentially, we need a 512MB ESP partition for ZFSBootMenu and a `/` partition for the rest of the system. If you are using a single disk, just make those 2 partitions on your disk. If you are planning to do mirroring, set up both on of these partitions on each disk.

## Mirroring the ESP partition
__Skip this if you are not doing mirroring__
_Skip this if you are not doing mirroring_
While the EFI specs do not support `mdadm`, we can setup mdadm with metadata v1.0, which will be put at the end of the parition and allows it to boot.
```bash
mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level 1 --raid-disks --metadata 1.0 /dev/nvme0n1p1 /dev/nvme0n1p2
```
## Setup the ZFS partition
This part is mostly based on the [official ZFSBootMenu guide](https://docs.zfsbootmenu.org/en/v2.2.x/guides/ubuntu/uefi.html) with some changes to work around some not-so-great instructions there.
### Creating the zpool
#### Getting the Disk ID.
First, we must get the disk IDs from `/dev/disk/by-id`. The official guide uses the dynamically assigned drive identifier (`/dev/sda`, `/dev/nvme0n1`, etc), which is not what we want to do with zpools, since it will cause problems later on.

#### Installing ZFS-Utils
```bash
sudo apt install zfsutils-linux -y
```
#### Create the encryption key
```bash
echo 'SomeKeyphrase' > /etc/zfs/zroot.key
chmod 000 /etc/zfs/zroot.key
```
#### For non-mirroring setup
```bash
sudo zpool create -o ashift=12 -O compression=zstd -O acltype=posixacl -O xattr=sa -O atime=off -O encryption=on -O keylocation=file:///etc/zfs/zroot.key -O keyformat=passphrase -o autotrim=on -m none zroot /dev/disk/by-id/nvme-SAMSUNG_MZQL21T9HCJR-00A07_XXXXXXX-part2
