Re: BTRFS partition corrupted after deleting files in /home

1. If you don't have a backup of important data, you should first use 'btrfs restore' as I've described in previous emails. The fsck should fix the problem, but there is a chance it makes things worse. No fsck is guaranteed safe, because it's making changes to the file system. 2. Install the follo

I think this is one of the corner cases for BTRFS as most people want the opposite behavior, but on one computer I run MythTV and it manages how many recordings to keep based on the available free space. Once free space comes down to a certain threshold it starts expiring older recordings. Obvious
