Subject: Create subvolume from a directory?
Date: Tue, 27 Mar 2012 17:19:06 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <loom.20120327T190041-268@post.gmane.org> (raw)

Hi all,

Just a quick question but can't find an obvious answer.

Can I create/convert a existing (btrfs) directory into a subvolume?

It would be very helpful when transferring 'partitions' into btrfs.
I found a similar question way back in google, but that site is
down now generally.

Thanks in advance.
