Description

Description
Hi everyone,

I use btrfs on my external drive. When I want to switch the location of my swap file it tells me "BTRFS doesn't support swapfiles. You can still use nc-zram". As far as I know btrfs supports swap files for some time now. Maybe the script should be edited accordingly.

Thank you.

Research direction
Review nc swapfile.sh to update the btrfs detection logic and allow swap file creation on btrfs filesystems.
