Re: Can anyone boot a system using btrfs root with linux 3.14 or newer?

The screen shot provided makes it clear that one of the following kernel parameters is incorrect:

> root=/dev/mapper/cryptroot

> rootflags=subvol=root

So either the dmcrypt volume hasn't been opened, thus isn't available; or rootfs isn't on a subvolume named root found at the top level of the file system. So I'd say this isn't a btrfs problem, rather it's due to some earlier misconfiguration that's preventing rootfs from being mounted.
