Kde Not installed on Btrfs

Wed Apr 14, 2021 6:01 pm
Hello! Downloaded the latest stable release from the kde neon site.
I start the installation, install GPT when partitioning the disk, then everything follows the standard scheme. FAT 32 under boot, for root 65000 on btrfs, then swap and / home on xfs. When installing, I do not see that the unpacking went to / root, when the installation reaches 30%, an error pops up "Failed to unpack image "/cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs" rsync failed with error code 11! If you put on ext4, then the installation is fine and everything is installed. What is the reason? What can be done? 4 months ago everything was installed on btrfs. Help me please.

Why / on btrfs, and xfs for /home?
Maybe the installer can't deal with this sort of setup?

I tried both sections to make btrfs still fail. It does not automatically mount partitions with btrfs

I checked again, and indeed, with a new clean installation, after partitioning the disk, if you make a btrfs file system under root, then the installer does not mount this partition, and does not write the system there.
As a result, an error pops up. If you choose a different file system, then the installation goes right to the end.

Well, it has not been this way - just about a month ago I made an install of neon with btrfs on both / and /home.
Maybe you can find some older image and try with that?

Or perhaps set up the partitioning with gparted or Partition Manager, then install Neon, just pointing things to the new partitions?
As far as I can tell, those I know running btrfs have all done manual partitioning before running the installer. But noe have installed from recent media.

Unfortunately, there is no old distribution left!
If you have the option, test what I am saying. Try it.
I have already tried to install partitions on divided ones, alas, nothing happened, the same way all the time. If you specify ext4 or another file system, everything is installed.

Hmm, I started from zero and made all partitions during live install process. However - this was a quite old core duo era computer with bios, not efi...
