In this page http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/SystemRollbackWithBtrfs I got the following information: (deferred) a patch to grub1 -- on top of the already existing patch to support btrfs in grub1 -- to allow selecting between snapshots of the boot partition. > II. it is so easy to create raid arrays of btrfs partitions but they > cannot be read by f13 or f14 > III. it is not possible to copy btrfs partitions with snapshots > except possibly by the use of dd. > This is not meant to be a put down of btrfs but a plea to have some > clarification and in particular the ability to boot snapshots. > > Hope I can get a response > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in > the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
