Does Debian (or whatever distro you use) support BTRFS "/"?
If yes, you should ask them.
If no, then you should've already known that there's a risk when using
unsupported filesystem.

Looks like grub problem. I know that Ubuntu Natty's grub-pc (grub2)
work just fine, so you might be able to fix it by upgrading to newer
grub/grub-pc (perhaps from Debian-unstable).
