Actually I did have a bit of a fling with btrfs at that time, but I couldn't understand what the docs were telling me. I must have had a comprehension gap or something, but in the end I just went back to what I knew and reinstalled from backups. The BIOS is still in the MBR era anyway. Not wishing to hijack the thread, but out of interest, what would you recommend for this box with its old BIOS, and two SSDs with LVM2 volumes? At present I have this fstab: /dev/md1 /boot ext2 relatime,noauto 1 2 /dev/md5 / ext4 relatime,discard 1 1 /dev/vg7/home /home ext4 relatime,discard 1 2 /dev/vg7/common /home/prh/common ext4 relatime,discard 1 3 /dev/vg7/boinc /home/prh/boinc ext4 relatime,discard 1 3 /dev/vg7/virt /home/prh/.VirtualBox ext4 relatime,discard 1 3 /dev/vg7/var /var ext4 relatime,discard 1 2 /dev/vg7/portage /usr/portage ext4 relatime,discard 1 3 /dev/vg7/packages /usr/portage/packages ext4 relatime,discard 1 2 /dev/vg7/distfiles /usr/portage/distfiles ext4 relatime,discard 1 2 /dev/vg7/local /usr/local ext4 relatime,discard 1 2 /dev/vg7/tmp /tmp ext2 relatime,nosuid,nodev,noexec 1 2 /dev/vg7/vartmp /var/tmp/ ext4 relatime,discard,nosuid,nodev 1 2 I've omitted quite a few other partitions that don't bear on my question. /dev/vg7 is on /dev/md7. -- Rgds Peter
