Default btrfs mount options and subvolume layout

[zilexa]

This was just last week. I did the same test a couple of times: 100% certain no swap subvolume is created. It is either a file on / or a partition.

I simply select wipe disk, select swap type and FS type.
I have not used manual partitioning.

For now, I simply select “no swap” and “BTRFS”.
After installation, I run the script (that I updated) from this topic:

[HowTo] Enable and configure hibernation with BTRFS

Difficulty: ★★★☆☆ Create and activate a Swap Device Set the root device: export fs_uuid=$(findmnt / -o UUID -n) && echo ${fs_uuid} Temporarily mount your btrfs filesystem to a folder, create a subvolume and mount it to the root filesystem. sudo mount -m -U $fs_uuid /mnt/system-${fs_uuid} sudo btrfs subvolume create /mnt/system-${fs_uuid}/@swap sudo umount /mnt/system-${fs_uuid} sudo mount -m -U ${fs_uuid} -o subvol=@swap,nodatacow /swap Create a swapfile and set permissions/attribut…

This will calculate the amount of swap needed for hibernation, create a subvolume and create the swapfile, turn on swap and perform necessary tasks for hibernation to work.
