Hi together,
I've created a btr(fs) filesystem on a partition on a qcow2 image with
GUID partition table created with qemu (1.7.0) tool:
qemu-img create -f qcow2 image.qcow2 2T
I'm connecting this image to a NBD with qemu-nbd and mounting the NBD.
I'm experiencing errors which I don't with partitions on the real HDD, e.g.
<output /var/log/syslog>

</output>
Some images are broken. The image file is located on a NFS mount from
another physical machine for which I haven't found any info on
malfunction of NFS (I guess usual network errors are treated by NFS and
qemu-nbd).

I'm addressing to the list not in order to get detailed debugging
instructions, but rather a statement on whether it is possible to do
what I want to do (mount a qcow2 image on a NFS mount) or why not. I'm
not looking for alternatives :)

Further infos:
when I created the btrfs partition and partition table I did it on the
NBD /dev/nbdX.

Thanks in advance for your help and pointers!

Best regards,
Karl Richter
