[SOLVED] Prevent zfs import on boot

The zpool import runs into an out of memory error during boot.


I don't need the zpool as arch is sitting on a separate SSD.

How do I prevent the import of the zfs devices on boot in order to salvage the situation?

Try booting into rescue mode (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sy … escue_mode) and disabling zfs.target (systemctl disable zfs.target)
