Given that bug #106741 has now been fixed, but this one has not, I doesn't seem this bug is a duplicate anymore.
Given that Btrfs is already an option, I understand it is now trivial to add a "Btrfs (compressed)" option to the GUI. Use cases: Joe wants to install Ubuntu on an old Eeepc with only 4GB of SSD. Minimising the size of the install is vital Alice finds that Ubuntu doesn't support her machine properly, and goes back to windows. However, she wants to keep a *small* Linux partition installed so she can help debug the bugs she reported in the Linux drivers. Fred finds that given his combination of a slow SSD and a fast CPU, compression improves performance as well as space usage. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 106741 no crypto filesystem support -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/204187 Title: No compressed file system option in ubiquity.
