So am I :)  In fact I would really like to help fix the tool.  I hope I
can provide some suggestions for fixes, but I'm having my trouble with
the code ;)

All I can tell so far is that when you run `btrfs restore` via valgrind
you get much farther then without.  But even that eventually crashes :(

I managed to retrieve almost everything from /home/.  I am even working
on the machine that had the crashed file system now :)

Good point!  I could not find any references to restoring only parts of
the file system.  It's just a pain to see it restoring everything in
/var/cache/apt/archives ... and stopping before it get's to `valuable`
data ;)

I will give it another try since I have backups of the corrupted devices
anyhow and will use them as test ground now.

Thanks for your reply!

Cheers!
