I noticed that. I also noticed that they mention reiserfs as btrfs-convert-ready. That I didn't know. I thought btrfs-convert only supported ext*. Tho I'd guess ext* has had more testing, and given the headaches I've seen people posting here having with it, I'd strongly recommend creating and testing a backup and restoring from it onto the new btrfs, as opposed to doing the direct convert. Still, I wasn't aware it was even possible, and definitely not that it was good enough for SuSE to support. Cool that it is. =:^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
