failure moving btrfs partition
SUMMARY
1. moving btrfs partition fails. See attachment. It is in German language.
Using a 1 TB hard disk with KDE Plasma on Manjaro Linux beside a 256 GB HD for
OS.
And here more bugs from other cases with the same hard disk.
2. Originally my hard disk was fully formated in NTFS 99% for data use and
another 1% size partition was for MS Windows. I tried to shrink the NTFS part
for having 2 halfs of the harddisk. Then I formatted the 2nd part into btrfs.
It crashed all my data. Even the most professional recovery programs could
rescue only a little.
3. Later after the crash I have deleted the whole hard disk and splitted it
into 2 parts. I tried to format one half to NTFS and the 2nd half to btrfs. It
said this does not work. Using a Windows platform partition manager easily I
could format one half to NTFS and the other one to ext4. Later I used gparted
to change the ext4 to btrfs.
Sorry to talk so open but your partition manager is really rubbish. It cause
terrific problems. It cost me 3 days of work for (partial) recovery. All free
partition programs in Windows are much more reliable and offer more features.
Compared gbparted still does not create those crashes as KDE partition manager.
And it gives at least warnings for risky formats and explains what to consider
before acting. Nothing like this for KDE partition manager
