- Btrfs is a new filesystem with extents, writable snapshotting,
- support for multiple devices and many more features.
+ Btrfs is a general purpose copy-on-write filesystem with extents,
+ writable snapshotting, support for multiple devices and many more
+ features focused on fault tolerance, repair and easy administration.
- Btrfs is highly experimental, and THE DISK FORMAT IS NOT YET
- FINALIZED. You should say N here unless you are interested in
- testing Btrfs with non-critical data.
+ The filesystem disk format is no longer unstable, and it's not
+ expected to change unless there are strong reasons to do so. If there
+ is a format change, file systems with a unchanged format will
+ continue to be mountable and usable by newer kernels.
+
+ For more information, please see the web pages at
+ http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org.
To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here. The
module will be called btrfs.
