It seems btrfs is really worth a try after so many positive feedbacks. Any ideas how can I format / with latest btrfs? I've the archiso on my pen drive which was released months ago, I guess it doesn't have the latest btrfs-progs? What's the method then? Create a PenArch?

I just installed the btrfs-progs-git from AUR and followed the steps from https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Conversion_from_Ext3. This, of course, works only if you currently have ext3/4 on /. Good luck, Christoph
