[ale] SuSE disk volumes?

[Jeff Hubbs]

I haven't messed with btrfs subvolumes yet so I don't get some of the 
discussion here, but in its most basic usage what you say here is true - 
it behaves like you'd expect.

As for "lying to df," that is the case when btrfs volumes are mounted 
compressed. Btrfs has no way to know the compressibility of whatever you 
might write to it next; if on a 1TiB partition you've written to it such 
that df says it's 90% full, you can subsequently write a LOT more than 
100GiB of /dev/zero to it.
