Re: How-to Convert from EXT4 to BTRFS
Reply #2 –
More respect for you for being honest.
I read the post previously and now and as far as I understand he just mentioned he is using BTRFS for the system and EXT4 for home. So, it is me who was not that smart to figure out that this configuration sorts out the baloo issues.
By the way I went through https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/btrfs#Ext3/4_to_Btrfs_conversion (Well, seems I'll be back to university and study it as I studied before). It seems to be written for advanced users or developers. Everything detailed and assuming the reader simply knows much more than I know! But I'll try read and learn more. This is the fun!
Even though, I don't have the guts to do it on my own. As you mentioned
Same here! Such thing is serious and sensitive.
UPDATE:
I have only one physical SSD, default installation default partition (selected use entire disk)
UPDATE2:
I just reinstalled, manual partitioning, 50 GB BTRFD for system, the rest EXT4 for home.
Still I hope we put a simple guide how to "convert" already installed system.
Of course noticed much faster boot time almost half previous boot time with EXT4.
