Once I get my data out via btrfs restore, can I write that data back to my root partition ? I mean I really don't want to format and reinstall my OS again, but what if I could exfiltrate the data format my root partition and then again write the backed up data into it. Would that work? I am considering this as a last resort, if the fsck fix does not come through. -- Regards, Sreyan Chakravarty _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
