- oarsinsync 2y agoUnless you’re using Debian backports, and they backport a new kernel a week before the zfs backport package update happens. Happened to me more than once. I ended up manually changing the kernel version limitations the second time just to get me back online, but I don’t recall if that ended up hurting me in the long run or not.

I have done it in the past more than a dozen times.
