Hello nicholas, have you ever tried to fix a broken Brtfs? I do not think so because your email tells me so.
I have, many times
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.
Well that is your problem, if the first thing you do with btrfs is run btrfsck, YOU are liable to break your btrfs filesystem
Then the tool is broken. Don't blame the person, blame the tool! btrfsck should silently and fully repair any problem in the filesystem, period.
If a root fs is broken, whom will you ask to fix anything if the tools available are simply disfunctional?
How can we be sure the root fs is broken when you have no provided any of the requested information, and the only information you have provided demonstrates that you clearly didn't look after your root filesystem properly?
No, you don't have any proof of that, either. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" (Minas Tirith))
