Hello nicholas, have you ever tried to fix a broken Brtfs? I do not think so because your email tells me so. The errors vary, btrfsck is simply not working, you are stuck every other time with a file system that is said to be full though it isnt. And there is no way to fix, try to find some information how to fix broken Btrfs file systems, you'll almost always fail. If a root fs is broken, whom will you ask to fix anything if the tools available are simply disfunctional? Search for "ext4 problem" and search for "btrfs problem". The differences are striking in numbers. There is even a wikipedia article listing tons of problems and may-be-circumvents for btrfs - I do not find anything similar for ext4. Guess why. ext4 problems are usually hardware problems - or someone ran into the overfull - limits. ext4 is simply more forgiving than Btrfs. You did not state why the change to Btrfs was done before ... nobody ever said that so far. My two cents, regards Dieter Jurzitza Am Sonntag, 26. Februar 2017, 08:39:52 schrieb nicholas:

could we have data or at least a description of the problem? link to forum where you tried to resolve the problem? I find it strange you would expect design descisions to be made on a single persons "opinion" that "something" went "wrong".
