Github rhinstaller anaconda pull 3177 0 None open [Storage] add btrfs_compression option (#1928857) 2021-02-17 05:01:52 UTC

Description Michel Lind 2021-02-15 16:58:19 UTC
For https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/BtrfsTransparentCompression, every btrfs filesystems created by Anaconda should be mounted with `compress=zstd:1`

Comment 1 Brian Lane 2021-02-15 18:55:15 UTC
This kind of filesystem specific change belongs in Anaconda's kickstart handling code, not upstream.

Comment 2 Michel Lind 2021-02-17 05:01:53 UTC
Per discussion with the Anaconda team, here's the PR adding the ability to set [Storage] btrfs_compression and passing it to Blivet: https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/3177

Comment 3 Chris Murphy 2021-02-19 20:19:36 UTC
This is in 20210219 composes (tested with Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-34-20210219.n.0.iso). Mount option 'compress=zstd:1' used for the duration of the installation, and is in /etc/fstab.
