Boot environments could not be deleted

old boot can’t delete

I think you have the KEEP flag set for those. Look over the items on the right and unset the KEEP flag and try again.

Time to download a System Configuration, do a fresh new install and upload your System configuration?

A simple:

zfs list -t all -r boot-pool

should show if they still exist.


If they do, we may want the output from:

zfs get all boot-pool/X

replacing X with one of the boot environments.

24.10.2.4 is your oldest. Try that

On boot menu ,I select 24.10.2.4

This error is displayed repeatedly.

You were supposed to run zfs get all boot-pool/24.10.2.4 when you were booted into 25.10.2

zfs destroy -r boot-pool/ROOT/OLD solve,tks all

Well, if the problem is solved, then okay.

However, I wondered if the GUI had a mistake and had some file system attribute that prevented the GUI from removing the old datasets used by the old boot environment. I guess it does not mater now.
