root backup-reformat-restore

The FAQ says that "the best solution for small devices (under about 16 GB) is to reformat the FS with the --mixed option to mkfs.btrfs".

OK. Does anyone have any good suggestions for doing that with an existing / partition (which has special files and whatnot)?

I assume a backup-restore cycle is needed, but with which program(s)?

Thanks!
