I doubt there will ever be a forced upgrade to brtfs.
According to the brtfs default feature page, this feature is only 10%
complete. Based on that I think there is a significant chance of the
feature being deferred to F17.

btrfs as default fs...

2011-07-16 Thread Rob Healey
Greetings:

About two months ago, I loaded my system from a Fedora15 dvd, and I had
chosen btrfs as the installed filesystem...

I liked how it could make a restore point before making big changes to the
system!  I think it is awesome that Fedora can now have this
functionality...

Then I had some problems with my update up to fc16, and had to re- install
FC15...

This time, I forgot to choose btrfs !  I do not want to have to level my
system just to have btrfs once again!

Is there any timeline for when fc16's filesystem will be defaulted to btrfs
and become the primary file system?  When is the forced upgrade to btrfs
coming???

If you use preupgrade or yum to upgrade between Fedora releases you will 
never have your filesystem upgraded.

There's a ext4 to btrfs conversion utility if you wish to make the 
switch. (Google btrfs-convert)

As for the change to anaconda (for fresh installs), I do not know a 
timeline for the change.
