I did have a problem enlarging the ESP when I tried a while ago, it just |

wouldn't boot so I ended up deleting and recreating it. |

How about btrfs send/receive? I've never used them but used the equivalent |

with ZFS and it was simple to do. |

When you do repartition the disk, I'd suggest putting swap immediately |

after the ESP. That way, if you want to fiddle with the size of the ESP |
| 21 |
again, you only have to touch swap, not your main btrfs volume. |
