How to make new partition on SD for media files ?

NFS - yeh, you're right - oops. Not enough coffee yet and brain got frazzled reading all the btrfs pages.

Yes, so I agree and the "keep simple" was my #1 choice in my second post - abandon the idea.

Usually on desktop systems I like to do a modicum of partitioning to keep things separate for the aforementioned reasons.
But if I can't image Xbian back to a partition, then it doesn't make any sense.
