Looks OK to me.
That’s what I did earlier, but it didn’t load up for some reason though.
If it fails, let us know what the exact error is.
Yeee it works now, thanks for the help!
Er… how do I delete the home-transfer subvolumes?
sudo mkdir -p /mnt/old
sudo mkdir -p /mnt/new
sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/old -o subvolid=5
sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/new -o subvolid=5
sudo btrfs subvolume delete /mnt/new/home-transfer
sudo btrfs subvolume delete /mnt/old/home-transfer
Thank you so much! I got the system back together and working again. And a quick aside, if I wanted to do the same thing to my swapfile subvolume, I just simply follow the same commands again, correct?
Yes, but I would recommend against that. I would argue that you are better off not having a swapfile than having a swapfile on the HDD. It is fairly essential that the swapfile be on fast storage.
Ah ok, thank you! I do have this crazy idea in my hand to use this spare tny nvme drive and use that one as a cache/swap drive, though idk how much of a difference it’s going to make considering the current ssd in my machine is actually a Sata ssd and not nvme one.
I have moved most of my machines to use zram for swap.
Oo, what’s Zram?
Compressed swap in ram. You can use zram-generator to configure it if you want to test it.
