> SUMMARY
> As per
> https://www.reddit.com/r/kdeneon/comments/nw6y94/neon_installation_clusterf/
>  - The Calamares installer does not seem to work with BTRFS on the latest
> Neon ISOs.
> 
> STEPS TO REPRODUCE
> 1. Run installer on Neon Live ISO
> 2. When reaching 'Partitions', choose 'Manual partitioning'
> 3. Select an existing partition (though this might be caused with a new
> partition as well), click 'Edit'
> 4. Click 'Format'
> 5. Choose BTRFS as filesystem
> 6. Select '/' as mount point and click 'OK'
> 7. Select your EFI partition, click 'Edit', keep the content and set
> '/boot/efi' as mount point, flags 'boot'.
> 8. Continue installation
> 
> OBSERVED RESULT
> 
> When Grub is being configured / installed, I get this error:
> 
> --------8<------------
> Installation Failed
> 
> Boost.Python error in job "bootloader"
> 
> Command 'grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi
> --bootloader-id=neon --force' returned non-zero status exit 1.

> Installing for x86_64-efi platform.

I have the same problem with installing Neon on root BTRFS.
