Subject: Re: [LINUX-390] Server don't boot after patch

Was this with BTRFS or another filesystem?  We have had huge problems
with BTRFS and now have had to convert all of our SLES 12 servers to
ext4 to avoid it.  The problems all hit when we moved to SP4 from
earlier levels of SLES 12.  One by one, even the stable servers failed.
