BTRFS Fix

[Smeeto13]

Fixes problems I had with installing to BTRFS root instead on sub vol

[MatMoul]

I have always used btrfs like this with success ... Why do you want to add a nested subvolume named @ in the /root subvolume ?

When I have used the script it has always installed to the btrfs root vol (level 5) instead of a sub vol

Level 5 is a subvolume?

[Smeeto13]

From what I have heard it is advised not to install to the top level vol because some features like drive expansion do not work if installed to the root vol

[MatMoul]

What do you mean with toplevel? Level 5 isn't ID 5.

[Smeeto13]

this is the layout when setup with the changes I suggested and from my understanding the top one (level 5) does not work with all the features of btrfs

Looking on the doc : https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/SysadminGuide I don't find anything about limitation of subvolume, Level 5 or not. I use the standard flat layout explained in the page.

Adding a subvolume @ in root for the root of the system has nosense... Looking on OpenSuse, it has a @ subvolume at level5 and a root in it...
