Comment # 38 on bug 935993 from Neil Brown

> What's about the line CONFIG_MD_AUTODETECT=y ,

That setting does nothing useful (I would like to get rid of it completely ...
but some people still use it).  It won't affect this issue.

Providing the btrfs module is in the initramfs (which I suspect it is) there
should be no problems find it so that a btrfs filesystem can be mounted.

Can you provide me with a copy of the initrd that gets created to work with the
opensuse kernel?
If it is too big to attach here, maybe put it somewhere that I can download
from.


Have you tried the things I suggested in comment #25 to remove the dependency
on the usb stick?
