Archlinux host
1- created 3 btrfs subvol on /dev/sdb1 (SSD). The goal is to manage
snapshots easily.
no nested subvol.
------------------------------------------
# btrfs subvolume list .
ID 266 gen 39 top level 5 path rootvol
ID 268 gen 41 top level 5 path var
ID 269 gen 42 top level 5 path etc
----------------------------------------------------
2 - mount btrfs subvol
-------------------------------------------------------------------
# mount -t btrfs -o subvol=rootvol /dev/sdb1 /var/lib/machines/poppy
# mkdir /var/lib/machines/poppy/var
# mkdir /var/lib/machines/poppy/etc
# mount -t btrfs -o subvol=etc /dev/sdb1 /var/lib/machines/poppy/etc
# mount -t btrfs -o subvol=var /dev/sdb1 /var/lib/machines/poppy/var
--------------------------------------------------------------------
3- installed Fedora on /var/lib/machines/poppy
4- when booting the container, it hangs.
weird:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
root@hortensia ➤➤ lib/machines # ls poppy/etc
lvm/ systemd/ group ld.so.cache machine-id os-release@ resolv.conf
pam.d/ udev/ gshadow localtime@ nsswitch.conf passwd shadow
root@hortensia ➤➤ lib/machines # ls poppy/var
cache/ lib/ log/ spool/ tmp/ lock@ run@
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
These above directories seems indeed quite empty
Now:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
root@hortensia ➤➤ lib/machines # umount /var/lib/machines/poppy/etc
root@hortensia ➤➤ lib/machines # umount /var/lib/machines/poppy/var
root@hortensia ➤➤ lib/machines # ls poppy/var

cache/ empty/ gopher/ lib/ log/ opt/ spool/ yp/ mail@
root@hortensia ➤➤ lib/machines # ls poppy/etc

and the container now boots perfect and I can log in.
So I must not mount the /etc and /var subvolumes to be able to boot
the containers.
My two subvolumes have been indeed populated, but in a very very
uncompleted way. Why?
What did I wrong in my settings? I was waiting for /etc and /var
subvolumes full with all the needed files. Were I wrong?
TY for hints
