What partition size were you using?
I recommend a minimum size of 100 GiB for "/", with /home separate.
same for me. Even with the best setup, btrfs asks for much room if you want to use it's most wanted feature (fe snapshots)
If a root fs is broken, whom will you ask to fix anything if the tools available are simply disfunctional?
Well, ask here. :-)
exactly :-)
But you are right, the tools should work, automatically, and never make things worse.
It's debatable, what tool? I was *always* instructed since 20 years ago *not* to use fsck without knowing exactly what to do, as it's right for dd or some other very lowlevel tool.
Yes, ext4 is the safe choice, I agree.
same for me, specially with 24Gb or even 60Gb ssd I have now as root
Well, btrfs has new and interesting features. The most important, it has snapshots. I have seen people with no experience install some updates that crash the system.

solved. In minutes.
not solved at all (no space left on device). Works when the problem come from kernel or similar
It has compression. I have not tried it yet, but it is the only r/w Linux filesystem that has it. NTFS has it, since ages.
I challenge the need with so large mass storage - most large files I know are photo or video and they don't compress well (already natively compressed) jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
