Success! Using the same ISO you previously linked to, I ran 'btrfs check --repair', did another check which actually revealed many new issues, ran a repair again and after that successive checks showed no signs of other issues. I was able to successfully send my 'home' subvolume to the SSD and

Finally got around to running the suggested commands. Same error with the send, but not much output to help. The check operation did seem to reveal some potential issues. Here's the play-by-play along with the file output from check: [liveuser@localhost /]$ sudo btrfs check /dev/sda6 >
