The first sentence of your first email <https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2023/03/msg00682.html> is: > Hi. The second: > Is this possible: ? The third: > I have a block device on the local host /dev/something with data on it. And so on. In fact, I don't see the word "btrfs" anywhere in the email. So, which sentence did Reco contradict by suggesting an alternative approach? I'm more than a little bit confused. Oh and hey, as long as we're being meta here, why would you write a sentence like: > I have a block device on the local host /dev/something with data on it. Why wouldn't you give the actual NAME of the block device, and say what type of file system is on it? Assuming it's a file system, and not a raw partition used for swap, or an Oracle database, or glob knows what. This vagueness serves no purpose at all.
