   Did you manage to capture that output at all? (A photo would do).

   What kernel version are you running? (anything earlier than 2.6.39
is probably considered too old for comfort)

   btrfsck doesn't generally achieve much at the moment. However,
having mount hang is quite odd. It usually either succeeds, or causes
a kernel oops (if the latter has already happened, then *subsequent*
mount attempts may hang, but the original oops is still of interest)

   It'd be good if you have the time to try to reproduce this,
particularly with the latest kernels (3.0 or 3.1-rcX)
