That's possible way to solve it. This likely requires support from mount.btrfs (or btrfs.ko) to return proper indication that filesystem is incomplete so caller can decide whether to retry or to try degraded mount. Or may be mount.btrfs should implement this logic internally. This would really be the most simple way to make it acceptable to the other side by not needing to accept anything :) -- 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
