It is easy to set up and use ZFS. In this simple introduction, we're going to set up ZFS under Funtoo Linux using an existing debian-sources or debian-sources-lts kernel like the one that comes pre-built for you with Funtoo Linux, and we will also be using our ZFS storage pool for storing data that isn't part of the Funtoo Linux installation itself. This means that we don't need to worry about enabling ZFS support in GRUB, or mounting ZFS to actually boot Funtoo Linux. Funtoo Linux will boot from a non-ZFS filesystem, and as part of the initialization process will initialize our ZFS storage pool and mount it at the location of our choice.
