I'm trying out the btrfs send|receive command as shown on the incremental backup wiki page, but the command is failing. I've tried it with sudo as it had not permitted errors, but still no luck. The output is:

        s@s-Air:~$ btrfs send /home/BACKUP | btrfs receive /media/s/99b1c51d-b3bb-4179-a621-9d5a27acc385/Air
        ERROR: failed to determine mount point for /home/BACKUP
