I installed btrfs on manajro architect, but it was unable to support the subvolumes. the same happens in the gui also.

~ >>> sudo timeshift --create [1] [sudo] password for rben10: Using system disk as snapshot device for creating snapshots in BTRFS mode

/dev/sda2 is mounted at: /run/timeshift/backup, options: rw,relatime,compress=lzo,nossd,space_cache,autodefrag,subvolid=5,subvol=/

E: The system partition has an unsupported subvolume layout. Only ubuntu-type layouts with @ and @home subvolumes are currently supported.

Application will exit.

This is the subvolume list

~ >>> sudo btrfs subv list /
ID 256 gen 83 top level 5 path @ ID 258 gen 83 top level 5 path @home ID 259 gen 53 top level 5 path @cache ID 264 gen 53 top level 256 path var/lib/portables ID 265 gen 53 top level 256 path var/lib/machines

And fstab

~ >>> cat /etc/fstab
# /dev/sda2 UUID=47627eab-c5f8-41fb-8c52-8c549c8bbee6 PARTUUID=280128c9-fbc1-40be-8b2c-87221542fd24 / btrfs rw,noatime,compress=lzo,nossd,space_cache,autodefrag,subvol=@ 0 0

I didn't get where i went wrong or timeshift is at fault? This issue was opened previously i tried all sorts of things but nothing seems to work.
