Iterators for Visual Basic Collection Class
' BEGIN VB Collection Hacks
' @copywright Timothy C. Quinn
' @license MIT
' Inspiration: https://stackoverflow.com/a/19497757/286807
' VB Collections don't have a public way to get the keys or have any iterators
' Below is a list of hacks that should be high performance and thread safe
' I doubt that the backend API of Visual Basic for Collections will change as its a really bad data structure to use
' However, this may possibly break in future versions of VB
' I tested up to VB 11

Linux Mint 21.1 ZFS Root Installation Notes
When installing Linux Mint, you can install with ZFS Root by following standard instructions.
However, there is an issue with almost all Linux distributions default ZFS install script where the
allocated spaces for the partitions are a bit too small for real world ZFS Use.
These instructions show how to alter the ZFS setup script to have a more appropriate partition spacing.
Boot into the Linux Mint OS USB stick, and:
```
sudo su
cd /usr/share/ubiquity/
