Hello

If I want to manage a complete disk with btrfs, what's the "Best Practice"?
Would it be best to create the btrfs filesystem on "/dev/sdb", or would it be
better to create just one partition from start to end and then do "mkfs.btrfs
/dev/sdb1"?

Would the same recomendation hold true, if we're talking about huge disks,
like 4TB or so?

Cross platform compatibility (OS X, Windows, FreeBSD, …) is of no matter to
me.

Thanks,
Alexander


(NB: grub will not boot from "/dev/sdb", selinux will)
