update-grub on btrfs bootable partition

Update-grub could not recognized as bootable a btrfs partition.

A workaround to make a btrfs (bootable) partition recognized by update-grub is to create symlinks to /boot and /etc folders, in this simple way:

  • go to the mounted btrfs partition
  • create symlink for boot
    ln -s @/boot boot
  • create symlink for etc
    ln -s @/etc etc
  • do update-grub
