Hi

I'd be grateful if someone could tell me the magic chicken bones and 
incantations to perform this from the install dvd :-)

Cheers

Note of caution: I tried F13 btrfs about a month ago on a test laptop - 
after an unfortunate hibernation mishap, the FS was trashed and there 
was no way to recover it. The fsck is not ready for general use yet.

That said, this might be what you're looking for

Hi

Thanks for that - This is a plain vanilla test install, so no serious 
data. I've seen conflicting information for the line to feed it on boot 
from the dvd, so far I've seen: -

btrfs
btrfs_
Btrfs

etc

I just need the pointer to that.

Cheers

Bryan
