I mean, looking for a few minutes on the hexdump of my trivial test partition, header of members of btrfs array seems very alike. So maybe, I can make a file wich would have enough header to make btrfs believe that this is my device, and then remove it as usual.... looks like a long shot, but it doesn't hurt to ask.... -- 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
