Don't be surprised when a kernel from back when btrfs was still marked as
experimental sets your machine on fire; the experimental warning was only
removed in 3.13.
The Kconfig for 3.10 said:
help
Btrfs is a new filesystem with extents, writable snapshotting,
support for multiple devices and many more features.
Btrfs is highly experimental, and THE DISK FORMAT IS NOT YET
FINALIZED. You should say N here unless you are interested in
testing Btrfs with non-critical data.
To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here. The
module will be called btrfs.
If unsure, say N.
I think the "enterprise" distros have done their users a huge disservice by
shipping it enabled before it was ready.. :-(
All the best,
Chris
