If you want to debug ZOL and/or Linux, then build from source.


If you want to use ZOL on Debian, use a supported Debian version and 
supported ZOL binary packages:

https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Debian

Installation

For Debian Stretch, ZFS packages are included in contrib repository.

For Debian Jessie, ZFS packages are provided by backports.

Install kernel headers:

# apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r)

Install zfs packages:

# apt-get install zfs-dkms

If you want to boot from ZFS, you'll need zfs-initramfs package too:

# apt-get install zfs-initramfs
