Subject: unmountable partition and live distro (no space left)
Date: Sun, 16 Dec 2012 14:42:41 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <50CDCFD1.5000304@libero.it> (raw)

Hello all.

My system failed and I thought of trying btrfs.
After repartitioning and installing, nothing booted and my (btrfs 
formatted) home partition is unmountable (parent transid).
I discovered I can mount the partition with btrfs-restore but, since I'm 
running off of a live usb Ubuntu, mounting fails at some point due to 
lack of space.
So is there a way I can mount the partition on a live distro to recover 
what is recoverable?

Thank you
Claudio
