The initial setup and install -- which took some time due to learning how to setup rEFInd and much fury at the more modern Disk Utility.app's insane pie chart partitioning system -- used HFS+ for High Sierra, ext4 for Arch, and HFS+ for the shared partition.

With all this in place -- and omitting some some minor mistakes along the way -- I safely rebooted back to Mac OS. However, upon attempting to login, it seemed the ZFS filesystem *Lyon/Users* was not mounted to */Users* when I logged in. After some research into the matter, it appeared that mounting ZFS volumes takes some time to actually mount. After some initial tries with some basic LaunchDaemon scripts, I discovered [ZFSLoadCheck](https://github.com/alexwasserman/ZFSLoadCheck), a rather simple LaunchAgent application that polls for a hidden dot file in the */Users* location and lets you know if it finds that file or not. It does so by showing a small dialog on the Login screen that updates about every 5 seconds to let you know if it is yet time to login.

After putting **ZFSLoadCheck**'s files into place, I rebooted between Mac OS and Arch Linux multiple times and was able to log in perfectly each time -- providing I waited a few moments for the ZFS volumes to actually mount.
