btrfs missing/broken from anaconda install dialogues

Hi,

I was reading about filesystems in Linux, specifically RedHat systems, and there was a lot about btrfs and how good it is. 

With this in mind, I tried to install my favorite Fedora Core system (Currently FC33) uner QEMU, but saw in the custom partitioning part of the dialogues that btrfs was missing. This was where ext3, ext4, xfs, etc were listed. There was a place where btrfs was listed so I tried installing from there. I have pre-partitioned a virtual drive and made btrfs the filesystem on these partitions (except for swap). Anaconda did sense these partitions and filetypes but when I got around to assigning partitions to mount points, the process would not let me make a mount point for "/". For one, the sort of the display was NOT by device, i.e., /dev/sda1, but rather some other sort "field". I was expecting a similar partitioning process but this is not the case.

I guess I'm asking two questions here. 1) is btrfs supported by anaconda, 2) is it the process broken for btrfs?

Of course, my thanks to all who respond but also to the whole group. You "guys, gals" are AWESOME!

Best Regards,

George...
