The problem is that I cannot login to the system.only recovery mode works, and there btrfs command is not there as you imagined. I will try though ssh but I don't think it's installed by default and I cannot install it. So the next step is try from recovery console of debian live cd, which still has the really old tools... I think this is quite some serious issue but generally all debian's fault adopting a btrfs file system support on a 2.6.32 kernel and without btrfs-progs on some decent version. I'll update when possible. Please throw any other alternatives my way anyone.
