I though about that... However, I had "btrfs su del" the ext2_saved
subvolume, so it is expected to have been deleted...

If not, how could I possibly delete it, now that I can't see it anymore ?

No, the filesystems weren't mounted... If by default, btrfsck doesn't
fix, how could I ask it to fix ? "man btrfsck" or "btrfsck -h" do not
show any option, only a device name...

TIA.

Kind regards.
