For some time I have been waiting for support by anaconda of existing
BTRFS subvolumes. While you really need a new root subvolume, most
folks would want to re-use their existing /home subvolume and I am no
different. This is bugzilla report:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=892747
Well, I got tired of waiting. With the help of pdb and by doing some
tracing, I figured out what (mostly) needed doing and it was not all
that difficult once I realized what was happening. There are two
patches (one for F19 and anaconda-19.33-13 and one for F20 and
anaconda-20.22-1) attached to the bugzilla report and I am attaching
them here as well. Yes, I know that is not the "right" way to submit
patches but I am not setup right not to submit patches from my local git
repositories.
While the patches work, there is one "little" problem that remains: the
entry in /etc/fstab has /dev/___ rather than UUID=___ . I am still
looking into that.
