Btrfs in Debian is just fine. I run btrfs on all my x86 systems with
only /, no separate /boot. On ARM one needs a /boot as u-boot only
understands ext2.
If you start over, you need to install Debian Sid (unstable), which
contains the latest grub and newest kernel. After installation, just
edit your sources.list and replace 'sid' with 'squeeze' (current
stable).
But for now, lets just fix your system. See my other post.
Btw, just found out the hard way that grub doesn't support btrfs lzo
compression :-)
