First umount then remount, because it needs to be rw first. If you can't get it to mount rw, then it's stuck. Next, connect a USB stick that's already erased (wipefs -a on each partition and whole block device), then add the whole block device. Ideally it's small, around 2-8GB, you can partition it if it's a large USB stick. btrfs dev add /dev/<usbstick> /data btrfs balance start /data btrfs dev delete /dev/<usbstick> /data You could use filters, such as -dusage=0 or -dusage=15 to make it go a bit faster. Realize that some fs metadata will end up on the USB stick, so don't remove it until the dev delete completes and fi show lists that it's not part of the volume anymore. -- Chris Murphy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
