Thanks for your reply, I appreciate it a lot. > Current stable is 3.14.1, I suggest giving 3.13 or 3.14 a shot at this with > -o ro,recovery as a first step and see if it at least mounts. I will. Note that with 12.3, which was the most recent media I had at hand at the time, the FS was actually mountable at first (-o ro,recovery). But there was no /home and later attempts to actually access data in other subvolumes failed with the messages in my debug material. > And an old kernel implies old btrfs-progs too, which is where the code for > btrfsck and btrfs restore is contained. So that needs to be at least v 3.12. > And hopefully you didn't use --repair with btrfsck yet. I did, but I made a block-level copy of the device before.
