If I have selected BTRFS instead of ext4 when the partition tries to
format itself with or without LVM it fails to mount with BTRFS so I had
to go back to ext4. The installation logs I attached should have that
information in them as I think it is the fact that either the BTRFS
support is not in the installation kernel or that the proper tools are
not inside the installer.
No, many users successfully installed on btrfs. Your syslog has this error:
btrfs: Unknown parameter 'usrquota'
I suppose that you selected the "usrquota" mount option, but btrfs does
not seem to support it. btrfs(5) does not mention it. Same with
"grpquota". I guess they were inadvertently copied from partman-xfs when
partman-btrfs was created.
So cloning the bug for this separate issue.
Note: you should compress installation logs before attaching them. Your
mail was too big and not forwarded to the debian-boot mailing list, so
people were not aware of it until you mentioned them in another mail.
