I have seen what ZFSBootMenu can do and I really like it.
Its just 'crazy' to me that there are ZERO Linux distributions that install as root on ZFS with ZFSBootMenu and enabled ZFS Boot Environments.
None. Zero. Why?

Seems like the only ones that have ventured to ship a ZFS binary are Canonical, and their implementation seems to be done by people that didn't understand ZFS and have no interest in understanding it.
It's really a shame. OpenZFS on Linux really has excellent support and integration, arguably as good as or better than FreeBSD and Illumos, and has this excellent bootloader.
Still, ZFS has good out-of-tree support in distros like Void and Alpine, where the users can take it upon themselves to do a good root-on-ZFS setup and reap the benefits.

Unfortunately there is no command like bectl(8) or beadm(8) to manage that.
You have to do that from the WebUI:

Hope that helps.
