(In which case, I'll cut my > losses....) unfortunately i really don't know enough to advise ... i did similar actions a long time ago while experimenting for an initcpio-based rollback utility, but in my case the FS was a dummy/loopback, so i just burned it. my only suggestion would be to try Josef's readonly recovery/slurp utility and maybe you can pull some data off, since my completely uninformed guess is the structures are 99% intact, but your UUIDs no longer match, or internal top-level pointers to wrong locations, etc etc. perhaps someone more familiar with actual internals can be of more help -- good luck. -- C Anthony -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
