* cwillu_at_work has successfully booted a btrfs root on a beagleboard with rootstock | 15:08 | |
cwillu_at_work | I'm tempted to suggest it has a default rootfs, as it doesn't have the issues that ext3/4 has on sd cards re: journalling, nor the issues that ext2 has with the lack of journalling/consistency | 15:09 |

Martyn | I've managed to put together a ubi/ubifs as well... but that means you need direct access to the MTD to do UBI | 15:12 |
Martyn | Any issues on getting a btrfs root working that you found? | 15:12 |
cwillu_at_work | not really | 15:13 |
cwillu_at_work | uou need a kernel with the appropriate modules compiled in, or available in an initramfs, although rcn's kernel packages have it enabled for a month or so now | 15:13 |
cwillu_at_work | the ssd optimizations are supposed to be automically enabled if it detects non-rotating media, although I just err on the side of caution and put "btrfs.ssd" on the kernel boot line | 15:14 |
cwillu_at_work | I've been using it on a server for a while now, and also just started using it on my laptop, mainly to flush out these sorts of issues | 15:14 |
cwillu_at_work | update-grub doesn't get along with it very well, but that's not really an issue with arm | 15:15 |
cwillu_at_work | an amusing trick would be to hotswap rootfs devices: boot off the sd card, plug in a usb reader with another card, add the new card to the btrfs root, and then remove the original card :) | 15:16 |
cwillu_at_work | for those uptime critical embedded installations where the sd is starting to give write errors, but you can't afford to reboot \o/ | 15:17 |
