No doubt this is a catch 22. I think it's reasonable for an installer to have an aging logic that allows it to be more conservative than the kernel's support for compat_ro_flags and incompat_flags, and refuse to install if it's not recently formatted. Now that I go look for this, I'm not sure what either flags offset 0x38 or compat_flags offset 0xac are about. Also, I didn't mention that Anaconda does require root fs to be in a new subvolume. It won't install to either subvolid 5, or any other existing subvolume. -- Chris Murphy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
