Hi,
I can't give you a specific answer to your question. But because btrfs
is still under heavy development you shouldn't use it with those old
kernels at all in my oppinion. You should never be more than one
version away from the current stable kernel.

Hi Matthew,
I'm not sure what you are trying to achive. Couldn't you simply do
another snapshot of the subvolume? I don't understand why you want to
use send/receive on the same subvolume to be honest.

Lol :)
You can't use labels for the decryption, because an encrypted device has no
label, it
doesn't even have a filesystem and you can't say if there are any kind of data
on it
(in my case) :)
You can use labels after you have decrypted the device. Then I'm using labels,
too.

Hi Helmut,
don't use btrfs for important files if you got no backup yet. It's
