So, when running btrfsck just report if there's a super block checksum mismatch (like the patch does) but use it (don't skip it). For any other tools in btrfs-progs just report the mismatch and skip to the next super block (like what the patch does now) ? thanks > > david -- Filipe David Manana, "Reasonable men adapt themselves to the world.
