> in another script you install zfs-mount.service and use zfs mount?
yep, to mount the zfs datasets
> Why disable ARC for /home data
Disables L2ARC if not present on the device, not ARC.

Q&A:
> One script manually generates /etc/fstab
2 entries are added to /etc/fstab which doesn't have better alternative.
ESP or EFI partition.
for /tmp, systemd's tmpfs is utilized instead of a manual zfs dataset. Either way tmpfs doesn't make a difference.

This is a notebook friendly (extended battery life) zfs setup.
Imagine having one zfs pool on your disk and having as many datasets as you want each of which might contain a OS / distro.

These scripts show the way how to do exactly that.

Treat yourself with power of ZFS / openzfs!

MSFT and Apple spend billions on building Windows and MacOS! Yet, their OSs are unusable, bloated and uncontrollable freaks!

Long live open-source!
