--- Comment #2 from Martin Oberzalek
Choosing the same device for 2 filesystems (sda1) will not work.
Sorry that was a typo 2. format mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1 mkfs.btrfs /dev/sda2 /dev/sda3 /mnt mount /mnt umount /mnt
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.
I've tried to add sda2 as root partition. (I've not chosen it twice). Yast is doing this. Maybe yast is scanning the partitions and some subsystem is reporting /dev/sda3 and /dev/sda2 are btrf partitions. So yast is trying to mount first /dev/sda3 and then /dev/sda2. Which will result into this error. /dev/sda2 will also be mounted automatically, when yast is mounting /dev/sda3. Since the log is telling us first /dev/sda3 and then /dev/sda2 I guess I'm right.
Formatting Btrfs volume of size 9.32 GB (used devides:/dev/sda3 /dev/sda2)
Besides, yast does not support multiple btrfs devices
But you can create it. Or you will run into it during a upgrade process, like me.
which by itself is not not a supported setup with opensuse (yet).
Right! Not Yet! :-) But since btrf should become the next generation filesystem, someone should keep an eye on this feature. In future releases this better should work. Especially for buisness usage creating raids is very common. -- 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.
