I've returned to Debian after (short) excursion to Free/PC-BSD-10. Considering I was able to use ZFS with its features like pools & raid1, I'd like to avoid using lvm2/mdadm setup on Linux and embrace btrfs which provides the same functionality with simpler setup. Found some tutorials on the net like yours http://danielpocock.com/install-debian-directly-with-btrfs-raid1 which describes btrfs in raid1 setup and http://zythmer.acyclic.org/blog/2013/01/27/debian-full-disk-encryption-btrfs-subvolumes.html which describes simple lvm2-like setup using btrfs and subvolumes. Downloaded jessie-a1 installer and can see that it can normally use btrfs as fs in e.g. guided partition schemes, but there is still no automatic support for install with btrfs' subvolumes and/or btrfs raid1 setup which is pity considering those are some of the benefits of using btrfs. > Whether my patch is accepted or not, there appear to be only three > viable ways to ensure all necessary LVs are active: So, I'm interested what is the status/plan in regard to this bug as far as installer for Jessie is concerned?
