I'm trying to create a btrfs root filesystem following Richard Browns blog found here: https://rootco.de/2018-01-19-opensuse-btrfs-subvolumes/ but it seems that he missed a step or I can't follow directions.

If I follow his recipe to the letter then no 1st snapshot is ever made and no default subvolume can be set.

So, I omitted line 4 of step 4: and created a snapshot between his steps 6: & 7:

  btrfs subvol snapshot /mnt /mnt/@/.snapshots/1/snapshot

After step 7: I am able to set the default subvolume, but I have the @ subvolume showing when I list the directory in step 8:

Anyone have some pointers?

Thanks.
