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
