yes , i would second that. i am missing an option to setup btrfs with compress-force=zstd at installation time, to be able to install debian on small devices.
for now, i need to workaround by using terminal to remount btrfs and then btrfs recompress already written data by the installer. that works so far, but it sucks that it‘s not possible to pass fs / mount options at installation time On Thu, 22 Oct 2015 20:01:58 +0100 Stuart Chalmers <s_chalmer...@yahoo.com> wrote: > Package: debian-installer > Severity: wishlist > Tags: d-i > > Dear Maintainer, > > BTRFS includes more advanced filesystem features, such as subvolumes, RAID and > transparant compression.
