[pve-devel] [PATCH installer 0/3] add check/rename for already-existing ZFS rpool

Pretty straight forward overall, implements a check for an exising
`rpool` on the system and ask the user whether they would like to rename
it, much in the same way as it works for VGs already.

Without this, the installer would silently create a second (and thus
conflicting) `rpool` and cause a boot failure after the installation,
since it does not know which pool to import exactly.

Christoph Heiss (3):
  proxmox: add zfs module for retrieving importable zpool info
  low-level: install: split out random disk uid generation
  low-level: install: check for already-existing `rpool` on install
