GRUB has stable support for Btrfs for 10+ years. GRUB2 btrfs support tend to lag a bit. User would need to be careful not to enable some btrfs features before GRUB2 supports them. > * Scope: Contingent on bootloader and installer team review and > approval. blivet should use <code>mkfs.btrfs --mixed</code>. When going with btrfs /boot, you can forego separate partition and just make a /boot subvolume in main pool. Advantage: fewer partitions. Disadvantages: using encryption is harder. GRUB2 supports only LUKS1 encryption (AFAIK). Obviously, there is not plymouth integration, so the password would have to be entered at least twice. When not using encryption above is not a problem. -- Tomasz Torcz 72->| 80->| tomek@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx 72->| 80->| _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
