Great! Have you had any issues with this setup?

[–] Psyhackological@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

When you know LVM I think you can manage manual paritioning. :) Especially as btrfs is advertised with snapshots so trial and error is encouraged.

Which RAID? I need to read about SystemD encrypt hooks because I know nothing. Also why not LVM? Is btrfs more flexible in partitioning when you want to extend it or shrink it? I heard that you can merge "partitions" on 2 different disks so they are visisble under one mount point.

That's sound fantastic! Interesting that you didn't mentiona anything about snapshots. Have you had some isshes with BTRFS since then?

[–] Psyhackological@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Do lsblk -f and you will know for /home or / partitions. But probably yeah. However Fedora uses btrfs as default now so depends on the distro.

Oh never heard of it. How's your environment suited for it then? Give some details please.

usability is a mixed bag

Could you please elaborate?

[–] Psyhackological@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Tell me about those stories, maybe we can debunk or prevent them today.

From the grub menu or somehow in chroot environment?

Could you please elaborate on doing backups with btrfs?

[–] Psyhackological@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago

Yeah I think Ubuntu and Debian based distro prefers it for stability reasons. Fedora I think switched to btrfs by default.
