# accidentally installed linux-t2 instead of linux-t2-lts for zfs. Uninstalled the package but not the kernel. This results in dkms builds for zfs on 6.18.x. Ugh. Fine but hate seeing the errors.

# This returned some errors but I think that’s normal.
# WiFi works now even though I don’t need it.

# TO DO

# export & import zpool from 2012 backup
