How to change the boot partition? #61

Description

@tobiasBora

In order to have a bit of fun I wanted to try ZFS on the pi5 to get snapshots, incremental backups etc. so I got the kernel working, but now I need to update the configuration to make it work, and my main question is on how to setup the /boot partition. Of course, it cannot be a ZFS partition, so I need a separate FAT32 partitition, but I don't know, can I just assume that the FIRMWARE partition contains the /boot partition and don't do anything else beside adding a bunch of

  fileSystems."/home" =
    { device = "zfs_pool/home";
      fsType = "zfs";
    };

in my configuration.nix? Or do I need more care here?
