quick question...

Hi there.

Has anybody got a btrfs root filesystem that is running on a bare
block device? Would lilo be able to boot an initramfs that is living
on such a filesystem?

What I intend to do is to erase all the partitions off my system, make
a btrfs volume on /dev/sda, and then just use subvolumes in stead of
partitions.

Is this folly?

Would having an initramfs be a boon or a bane in this endeavour?

Would lilo writing to the mbr of a device that is claimed by btrfs
break the file system?

Do you need to have a partition table to have an MBR?

Thanks for any answers...
