Bug Description
Do the following to reproduce the problem: Using the installer create a /boot partition (primary) using btrfs as file system. When the install is finished and you boot up the system, the fstab entry for /boot looks like this:
/dev/sda1 /boot btrfs defaults 0 2
This does not happen if I repeat the exact same procedure using ext2/ext3/ext4 for the /boot partition, where an entry in the resulting fstab looks like expected:
UUID=13b5e56a-
I tried to manually solve this issue by running
"sudo blkid /dev/sda1", but nothing is returned and "sudo blkid" does not list /dev/sda1 anywhere.
There is a reason partitions should be mounted by UUID and not by /dev/sdXY, because under certain circumstances the partition will not be found.
