13.1 / Current / BTRFS. Can no longer access the desktop and I think it’s btrfs related. I kept getting minor freezes and glitches and never thought much of it, a reboot settled things down, until the last freeze and reboot.
I can boot to the Grub2 menu and choose Windows (which still works). I can choose opensuse and I get to the first splash screen and it looks like it’s going to load to the desktop but a jet black strip drops down from the top and this repeats until the words btrfs : failed to read the log tree. Something like this repeating:
190.770523 btrfs : failed to read log tree
xxx.xxxxxx btrfs : failed to read log tree
xxx.xxxxxx btrfs : failed to read log tree
xxx.xxxxxx btrfs : failed to read log tree
So I tried the recovery mode option from the boot menu and noticed; **Failed : cannot mount /home **
So I tried the opensuse live DVD and see the same thing. So puts the opensuse KDE live CD in to see if I can access the /home partition and get some of yesterdays files off and onto some external storage. I click on the /home partition and get this error message:
An error occurred while accessing '200.1 GiB Hard Drive', the system responded: The requested operation has failed: Error mounting /dev/sda4 at /run/media/linux/0d213eb2-2bc4-4080-8c85-997d28c0c7bc: Command-line `mount -t "btrfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid" "/dev/sda4"

So I tried an Ubuntu disk and get the same:

I’ve still got a hefty chunk of work sat on the desktop (even though it’s only a day or two worth) and would like to access and save if at all possible. I’m not too bothered if the installation gets any more borked though, I just want access to the files, and possibly get my Firefox sessions folder too.
Thanks.
