Hello,
I want a copy of my /

Why not just use the below?
btrfs send / | btrfs receive /mnt/backup
That will backup the root subvolume (but none of the other subvolumes) to a different btrfs filesystem or subvolume located at /mnt/backup
I'm missing instructions how to recreate bootable openSUSE installation from /mnt/backup ...
Me too. I know two possibilities. One is install fresh from YaST, then overwrite it from backup. I have never tried and I have my doubts. Maybe overwrite using that send-receive trick. The assumption is that YaST will create the proper volumes. Oh, wait, send-receive only copies the root subvolume. The other is to recreate from dd image. Maybe clonezilla, but it is not a true imager, as it doesn't image the boot sectors (it reinstalls grub instead). -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
