But you don't "install" btrfs. You partition a disk as btrfs, or as something else. At the time of formatting, the tools must be available - so you need btrfs tools before.
I think you are missing the point that Rodney and I ar tying to make. Yes, if I want to set up a partiution to use a spcifi tytpe of FS I'll install the toolkit for administering that. So what? I don't use BtrFS so I don't have that toolkit. Without that toolkit I can't mkfs.btrfs anyway # mkfs.btrfs If 'mkfs.btrfs' is not a typo you can use command-not-found to lookup the package that contains it, like this: cnf mkfs.btrfs main:~ # cnf mkfs.btrfs The program 'mkfs.btrfs' can be found in following packages: * btrfsprogs [ path: /sbin/mkfs.btrfs, repository: zypp (repo-oss) ] * btrfsprogs [ path: /usr/sbin/mkfs.btrfs, repository: zypp (repo-oss) ] ] Try installing with: zypper install btrfsprogs So your point is a bit off the mark.
What you ask is rather more complex to implement. It could be the YaST partitioner module that somehow ASKS the package management module to install the rpm for the filesystems it created, later during the installation. I doubt this hook exist, and it would be complext to do.
I don't think so. There are many things I've done with Yast where it has asked me to install a package. Seeing what FS you have available is easy enough: # cat /proc/filesystems | egrep -v nodev -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
