Typical Btrfs layout I do on SLES machines:<br>
<br>
/dev/sda1 - 2GB Swap<br>
/dev/sda2 - remainder of free space in large "/"<br>
I don't know about other distros, but SUSE by default creates subvolumes, and puts on a pretty sane config for the snapshots (don't snapshot/enable for rollback /home and /srv by default, etc..).<br>

Would you still use LVM with Btrfs? I know Btrfs has snapshots, resizing and multi-device support. What extra features would LVM add?
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you did install format a LVM partition with Btrfs, which one would you use for snapshots?</div>
