Yes, I was doing the "expert" install all along. I'm sorry, I didn't
mention that. I realize now that I only mentioned the alternate install.
The partitioning step is the same as the "regular" install's, which also
has *some* options like noatime, relatime,... I didn't find any options
related to mounting subvolumes.
In fact it appears as if the install totally ignores my subvolumes and
creates 2 new subvolumes for / and /home. This may very well be desired
behavior for new installations, but I would prefer if I could tell the
installer which subvolumes it should use.
I am now 40km away from that computer. I'll post back on the list later
this evening.
