Key changes: - EFI partition reduced from 1GB to 512MB (only holds ZFSBootMenu) - EFI now mounts at /efi instead of /boot - Kernel and initramfs live on ZFS root (enables snapshot boot with matching kernel) - Downloads pre-built ZFSBootMenu EFI binary from get.zfsbootmenu.org - Creates EFI boot entries for all disks in multi-disk configurations - Syncs ZFSBootMenu to all EFI partitions for redundancy - Sets org.zfsbootmenu:commandline on zroot/ROOT for kernel cmdline inheritance - Sets bootfs pool property for default boot environment - AMD GPU workarounds (pg_mask, cwsr_enable) added to kernel cmdline when AMD detected Deleted GRUB snapshot tooling (no longer needed): - custom/grub-zfs-snap - custom/40_zfs_snapshots - custom/zz-grub-zfs-snap.hook - custom/zfs-snap-prune Updated helper scripts: - zfssnapshot: removed grub-zfs-snap call, shows ZFSBootMenu tip - zfsrollback: removed grub-zfs-snap call, notes auto-detection Tested configurations: - Single disk installation - 2-disk mirror (mirror-0) - 3-disk RAIDZ1 (raidz1-0) - All boot correctly with ZFSBootMenu
