Hi all, I try to install Debian from my Debian onto an external SSD disk. The SSD disk is plugged on a USB3 dock. The partition to be used for the installation is a BTRFS one. The BTRFS partition is mounted with the following options: rw,noatime,compress=lzo,ssd,space_cache,uhelper=udisks
When I try to use debootstrap on the internal HDD, everything works just fine. When I try to use debootstrap on the external SSD, it fails: [...] I: Extracting liblzma5... I: Extracting xz-utils... I: Extracting zlib1g... I: Installing core packages...
