Subject: Ubunutu scanning for a btrfs fs it will never find

Dear fellows,

After upgrading one of my laptops from XUbuntu 12.04 to 12.10, I started to
see a "Scanning for Btrfs filesystems" message after the initial grub menu
and before the system issues its startup sequence of messages.

The first time I saw the message, my laptop completely stopped after
issuing some error message, claiming it wasn't able to start any system. I
restarted the system and opted for a former startup option, which worked
fine; restarted the system and opted for a WXP startup (I happen to need
this monster installed too), which worked fine; to my surprise, the next
restart with the newest kernel & version of XUbuntu worked fine as well.

The system hangs now there for several seconds (15, maybe?) and keeps going
with no further reference to btrfs.

I don't have any btrfs in my laptop nor plan to have it. Since it has
already showed fatal errors, I'd like to get rid of it.

I have read I could remove btrfs-tools module from my kernel and / or
blacklist it in /etc/modprobe.d

What do you recommend?
