Why can't I choose BTRFS during install?
I just installed LMDE UP8 MATE. During the process it asked me to choose a filesystem for the root partition. I saw BTRFS on the list but couldn't select it. Just wondering why? I want to use the ssd and compress options that BTRFS has available, since I have a netbook with only limited SSD drive space. I chose ext4 but would reinstall if I could use BTRFS in UP9 (fingers crossed!).
