0 666threesixes666 Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 for the most part yes... dont forget to throw in any tools packages for btrfs, and follow its caveats. (ie test it on a virtual machine first, or prepare for dataloss in advance ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 benzolius Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 btrfs is stable. I used it with Kubuntu, but with Funtoo I didn't try, yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 stac80 Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Btrfs is a great filesystem to use and Btrfs works great on Funtoo: I've been using Btrfs successfully on Funtoo for over a year on my file-server on 4 x 3 terabyte drives in a mirrored (RAID1) setup. I initially had only two drives but added two more when space started to run out. It couldn't have been easier to put additional drives into the RAID array. (Step 1. Plug drives into computer, Step 2. #btrfs device add /dev/sdx /export) I've seen a number of improvements in Btrfs tools since I started using it and I think Funtoo may be the ideal distribution to run Btrfs on because improvements are constantly being added to the kernel so having the latest kernel, which a lot of other distros do not have, makes a difference. A part of me is looking forward to a drive failure just so I can do a drive swap without any data loss (hopefully). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 jorgicio Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 I'm using btrfs in my / partition, and I find it very stable and functional. I also have xfs in /home. Both are fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 vkraven Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 Some googling tells me that's a Sandy Bridge CPU. I'm not completely certain, however, if intel64-sandybridge will work since the wiki page does say Core i3/5/7, although I can't think of any reason why it shouldn't. Should you want to play it a little safer though, you could go with corei7. linuxbigot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
