This is my personal guide on how i setup docker with BTRFS on ubuntu support. | |
Follow along the steps mentioned as: | |
1) Make sure you have a separate unmounted partition /dev/sdaX. How I did was , i installed ubuntu on my complete hard drive of 500GB. I wanted to partition it into two, so other 250GB will have btrfs eventually enabled on it. To partition it , after Ubuntu 14 installation, i followed the exact steps as these http://www.howtogeek.com/114503/how-to-resize-your-ubuntu-partitions/. | |
2) Following the above linked guide, i then managed to have two 250GB , one was spare , other was where UBuntu was installed. | |
3) login to your ubuntu, now create the btrfs filesystem on the other device. To know which device is it, | |
install gparted : | |
> sudo apt-get install gparted | |
> open it as "gparted" | |
> this will show u all drives , the ones you are on currently with ubuntu will have label "boot" . now take note of other 250G device. | |
Mine was /dev/sda3. |
