• curprev 11:4911:49, 2 April 2024‎ YHNdnzj talk contribs‎ 49,635 bytes −330‎ Undo revision 805128 by KSJ (talk): the subvolume layout should not be enforced. People are free to use nested subvol and that's arguably a better fit for swap IMO. Also the mount step is very icky, since people could set another subvol as default. Plus, the new fstab has ordering and device naming issues... Overall I don't see the benefit of the change Tag: Undo
