Or in other words: if a filesystem requires the user to become knowledgeable in "arcane settings and tools", then it is not a good default choice.
On the other hand, I have seen plain users with little knowledge recover from a system failure due to bad user management just by reverting a snapshot, unaided - just by chancing on the appropiate doc. Sure btrfs has very nice features.
I agree that BTRFS does have some nice features and I don't blame BTRFS for filling /. The main problem I have observed is the error on using a minimal amount of space for / when the system is setup for installation. WHY is only 20-50GB allocated? Have HDD's become so expensive again that space needs to rationed so tightly? Whomever is in charge of installation defaults needs to be a little more realistic when it comes to HDD sizes today. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
