I want to use one "@rootfs" instead of @ and @home in btrfs. #256

Ubuntu creates @ and @home when installing btrfs. However, debian stable only uses one @rootfs. Because of this, timeshift rejects the btrfs snapshot.

Hello,

You can create the @ BTRFS subvolume after the installation and mount the / partition with this subvolume with the fstab :)
