I don't think f2fs is ready for a system partition. Better to use ext4. If you must, see the wiki for the relavant config to boot to f2fs if this is possible. Then you should use a tarball or rsync to copy over the data, reformat, then copy back the data.

For f2fs read here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/F2FS
For "File system cloning" use rsync: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Rs … em_cloning
It would be wise to test the whole thing on another system first.

I've never heard of F2FS before! In what way is it better for you than EXT4?

There is no need for a "flash friendly" filesystem on any even remotely modern SSD. It might be useful on actual flash drives, but SSDs and flash drives are completely different creatures. I've even used ext4 on persistent usb installs for quite some time without issue though I'd admit to potentially living on the edge a bit there. For my SSD systems, I just use ext4 and am not remotely concerned about the I/O cycles wearing out the disk: worm cycles will wear out my decaying and burried body before I/O cycles threaten my disks.
