I'm having troubles installing latest CM12.1 nightlies on F2FS system partition.

Steps i did:
1. Used TWRP 2.8.6.0 bacon with f2fs support to format /system /cache /data
2. Flash latest CM12.1 with f2fs support but when it begins to install it format again on ext4 and continue the installation

After that the rom get bootloop, i also tried with AK kernel but no success (i supose it doenst boot because /system is in ext4 but /data and /cache still on f2fs

What i'm doing wrong?

I would appreciate if you mirror the zip files. Google has marked them as spam and the hotlink no longer works.
Thanks a lot!

A small question. Is anyone using f2fs on system partition? Does that work ? If not anyone knows what the problem is or why it does not work ?
Do we need sth like that https://github.com/dorimanx/Doriman...mmit/33bf0eb8e8397e339c6c8aa7550f7aa052e28467
or that https://github.com/dorimanx/DORIMAN...mmit/3e248ab89c9198f018ac1097ad7f0d2ef37b402f

This probably doesn't answer your question but I used f2fs with calkulins cos12 ROM on the system partition and I believe your kernel was the only one I could get it to work with.

Bump to this thread as the CM team has finally merged the full f2fs support within the nightlies, starting from the next one.

 

[Jole7]

At last f2fs-full support again that's great!

 

[st11]

what's the implication of f2fs being built into official CM nightly? I'd guess that installation will be easier than the OP

can someone shed a light as to how much easier it would be now?

I think simple format system-data and data media-cache and then install the rom. OTG cable is needed as the internal storage will be wiped.

 

[fmc000]

The commit says that there's only support for /data and /cache . There's no mention for either /system or /data/media partitions.

@vinman12 I know how to make the Rom F2FS on system partition too if you are interesting.

Not possible. A Rom patch is necessary to support system on f2fs.

Hi i will tell you how it works for me: Flash Philz touch recovery 6.59.4 make a full back up the rom to usb stick then format 3 partitions to F2FS then restore the backup and you're ready to go F2FS-ALL (you must be on a kernel that supports f2fs on all partitions TYR kernel or Radioactive, or AK). Check with DiskInfo app after i'm waiting for feedback.

it wont work, because partitions get reformated during backup to the file system on which the backup was made
but, will try that philz recovery
and for the kernel side, i am ak kernel user, so i am covered either way

 

[Jole7]

if that works like that on philz recovery, then ok, but on twrp it wont, because in twrp partitions get reformated durring backup to the file system on which the backup was made
but, will try that philz recovery
and for the kernel side, i am ak kernel user, so i am covered either way

It will work i have done it already on many roms with Philz it won't reformat back to EXT4 and it will boot on F2FS. Soooooooo simple! OP must be updated in this thread.
Greetings!!!

Can confirm, works perfectly as you said it would. At first I was hesitant to switch from twrp to philz, but when I did I realized how many more options it has. And a LOT better f2fs support. This little workaround made f2fs-all on 6.0 with lightning caf kernel a breeze. Thanks man!

No problem man you're welcome have fun!

 

[DarKAngel1234]

I have followed the above guide, each time after doing so, the system just reboots back to Philz recovery and won't boot the rom, Any thoughts or ideas Jole7?
