Hi, I have just recently installed Debian squeeze with a root filesystem on btrfs [1]. I have noticed however that I cannot set up a swap file stored on the btrfs volume:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/swap bs=16M count=4 mkswap /var/swap chmod 0 /var/swap swapon /var/swap [ 01751.879759] swapon: swapfile has holes swapon: /var/swap: swapon failed: Invalid argument For now I've set up a swap file under /boot (ext4), but is swap on btrfs expected to work? I'm using the stock Debian linux kernel 2.6.32-5-amd64. 1: This took a little bit of work - http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2011/01/msg00217.html -- Paul Richards @pauldoo -- 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
