#btrfs

Fediquestion: Can anyone explain/point me at documentation that explains what exactly btrfs means with its "allocated" and "unallocated" metrics in ``btrfs filesystem show? All I can find is "running a balance fixedthis for me", but no explanation of why it does that or what unallocated actually means, the explanation in the manpage isn't very helpful to me. In my case I have a btrfs on top of a single lvm volume with no btrfs-raid features enabled. #btrfs #linux

It's done. Gentoo moment™: darkpixel@gentoo ~ $ sudo btrfs subvolume list / bash: sudo: command not found ...fine. 😅 gentoo ~ # btrfs subvolume list / | grep -E 'path @(home|snapshots)?$' ID 256 gen 4591 top level 5 path @ ID 257 gen 3864 top level 5 path @home ID 260 gen 3958 top level 5 path @snapshots Just the way I like it. 😌 @ |---- @home |___ @snapshots Btrfs subvolume layout: done. sudo: apparently tomorrow's problem. 🐧 KDE's best feature is Per-screen virtual desktops without the need for fancy WM. Young Gamorra: What did it cost? Me: Time Young Gamorra: ... Me: btw I use Gentoo? #Gentoo #Linux #OpenRC #systemdless #Btrfs #Wayland #KDE

Ok, I think I'm getting in over my head on this computer problem, any help much appreciated! (Linux/Opensuse TW/KDE/btrfs) Symptom: Everything that tries to save something to my home partition (configurations, sessions, kwallet, etc.) says that I have no space left, and thus won't work. Some programs won't even load (Vivaldi, Steam). Every file manager I have tells me that I do have space left. History: Before this happened I had tried updating a game in Steam thinking that it would warn me if there wasn't enough room on the disk to do so (silly me). Then the whole desktop crashed and I had to restart. Tried: 1) deleting several GB of files. I can now download files to /home, but all the other stuff still won't work. 2) running fsck from bootable flash drive. Mostly didn't do anything. Finally got it to tell me to use btrfs check instead (I am using btrfs). 3) I did that and it told me that there were errors. The only things that looked like errors was in "Checking free space tree" where it said "Space key logical (number) length (number) has no corresponding block group" twice with different numbers. 4) Not being terribly familiar with btrfs yet, I read the fine manual for btrfs check. There were lots of warnings about not trying to repair a btrfs without experienced help, else risking your volumes. So here I am. #linux #opensuse #btrfs

Nuevo post, el más grande que he creado hasta ahora. Aprovechando el reciente lanzamiento de Fedora 44 y la puesta a punto de mi estudio con los Intel NUC, he preparado un tutorial paso a paso. Espero que sea útil. Guía visual: instalación de Fedora Linux #Linux #gnulinux #fedora #Fedora44 #opensource #softwarelibre #GNOME #GNOME50 #btrfs #guia #tutorial #blog #enmiblog

Ok I finally got my main NAS drive converted to #Btrfs and after doing some of the initial setup things mostly running a defreg and balance I decided to run the bees duplicator and ye gods in only about five hours it's managed to free up almost 100GB of space and the ETA for actually finishing a full crawl is about a day and a half more in the end I may end up with almost a 1TB of free space compared to only about 500 GB when I was on ext4 #linux #Self_hosting
