NVM, looks like the new 7.0.4 "shiny kernel" doesn't have zfs support in some fashion.
I guess I have to wait.
*** ZFS Version: zfs-2.4.1-1
*** Compatible Kernels: 4.18 - 6.19
To it's credit, the box still boots fine off the old kernel without any bootloader shenanigans required so I appreciate that. Ha.
Anyone else having difficulties applying 7.0.4+deb14-amd64 to a testing/forky host with Nvidia CPU?
đ Debian 14 verrouille sa sĂ©curitĂ© : vous allez pouvoir compter sur "Forky" !

Debian now requires reproducible builds for the Debian 14 âForkyâ cycle, blocking non-reproducible packages from entering or remaining in testing. đ§
The policy lets developers independently verify binaries against published source code, with 98.29% of architecture-independent packages already reproducing successfully. đ

Niggle that is hard to research...
For anyone running Debian Testing (Forky) and using Waterfox, some video will not play due to Waterfox 6.6.12 not being compatible with ffmpeg v8. It is expecting v7 and I guess there are some videos where the video won't start due to switches, params, or whatever.
My use case was an old Youtube video that I snarfed many years ago and had on my Jellyfin server.
[ Stream #0:0[0x1](und): Video: h264 (Main) (avc1 / 0x31637661), yuv420p(progressive), 854x480, 1100 kb/s, 25 fps, 25 tbr, 90k tbn (default) ]
Waterfox (v6.6.12) won't play it but Librewolf (150.0.1-1) does. Both are installed from PPA, not flatpak.
Forky currently has: ffmpeg/testing,now 7:8.1-3+b1
New stuff plays fine so I hadn't noticed it since ~Wednesday when this box was re-imaged and moved into.
Apparently the Waterfox flatpak doesn't have this problem (probably has it's own ffmpeg v7 bundled inside or has a flatpak ffmpeg dependency).
I could get into the weeds further to confirm but Librewolf works for now. I'll wait for Waterfox to work through it. đ

It got late and I didnât follow this up. The installation worked. Everything worked. It ended up on Debian #Forky / Sid, I believe because thereâs no official release of #Debian for #PPC, so it tracks the latest unstable. Nothing to compile, it all just worked.
It's the first device in the house to run kernel 6.19, and it's 26 years old!
