MGA5-32 on Acer D620 Xfce. Was already installed (with kernel 4.4.9?) Used an USB stick to test. At CLI as root: # mkfs.btrfs /dev/sdb btrfs-progs v4.4.1 See http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org for more information. /dev/sdb appears to contain an existing filesystem (ext4). Use the -f option to force overwrite. I unmounted the device and then # mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb btrfs-progs v4.4.1 See http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org for more information.
