The harddrive has two BTRFS partitions: sda7(/) and sda8(/home). The / partition loads up just fine, but /home does not. I've tried btrfsck as shown below and I've included dmesg pertaining to btrfs. This is on ArchLinux and the software versions are as follows: > btrfs-progs-unstable 0.19.20101006-1 > linux 3.0 Just a question here: how come corruption after power loss is *so* common by reading this list? I mean, are there some/hidden journal flushing issues that lead to this or what? I tried to cycle my testing machines several times to test the fs consistency months ago and I never had any corruption issues so far, but it seems I just could be lucky.
