hm. well to anyone who stumbles across this thread in the future, i've managed to use btrfs as my root on 1-3+ machines since circa 2.6.32, possibly even earlier (albeit not on Debian -- Archlinux w00tw00t ;-) ... ... there have certainly been a few bumps along the way, but not _once_ at the fault of btrfs ... not ONCE. tbh, I personally KNOW the developers and community here are doing one hell of a job -- i've been on this list almost 3 years i think, and along the way everyone has been most helpful + accommodating; i mean i've seen Chris and others extending rather gracious support levels when helping users recover data or debug issues ... and considering the demand/anticipation surrounding btrfs, this list is relatively devoid of support issues -- it's easily one of the highest quality groups i frequent. in short, distro's only just recently began offering btrfs at install time, with a big *warning sticker* on it. as others have already stated, this is clearly a Debian-specific problem, and does not reflect negatively on btrfs whatsoever, which has been nothing short of spectacular since the day i tried it and very much exactly as advertised -- i haven't used anything else since (save my servers ...). i am sorry you've found yourself in this position, i really am, as i've been there myself, but please do try and acknowledge the considerations already extended your way -- my post marks the 51st message in this thread.
