2. format mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1 mkfs.btrfs /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 /mnt
Choosing the same device for 2 filesystems (sda1) will not work.
mount /mnt umount /mnt
3. reboot and choose install go throu the installer, choose manual partition, now choose the ext4 Partition as /boot device and the btrfs partition as / continue with the installer and try to install
I've also tried creating a regular 12.1 installation, by using btrfs as / filesystem, without multiple devices. After the installation is completet, I added 2 btrfs partitions to the / filesystem. btrfs add /dev/sda3 / Then I've tried to install a 12.3 system. No upgrade, I've just imported the /etc/fstab. This will also run into the same error. Actual Results: Failure during the following action: Formatting Btrfs volume of size 9.32 GB (used devides:/dev/sda3 /dev/sda2)
System error code was: -3042
/sbin/btrf device add '/dev/sda2' /tmp/libstorage-WHUF95/tmp-mplu3yoB: /dev/sda2 is mounted
Does this mean you've tried to add sda2 to a mounted filesystem that is contains sda2? Looks like it from the log output above. Besides, yast does not support multiple btrfs devices, which by itself is not not a supported setup with opensuse (yet). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
