Thanks!
I had to install libuuid-devel (Fedora) to get past an error not being able to find uuid.h when running make. It works perfectly.
This seems like such a basic functionality, have they accepted your patches? Do you know if this is going to get merged?

Yes, this patch was merged and is in the "tmp" branch of the main btrfs-prog git repository [*]. Unfortunately this brach doesn't even compile (or almost it gives me an error). I don't know when it will be available.

Regards

Hi,
I suppose that you are familiar with 'git' and the standard unix command (like cd, make...). The quick way is the following:
$ cd /tmp $ git clone -b label \ 
http://cassiopea.homelinux.net/git/btrfs-progs-unstable.git $ cd
btrfs-progs-unstable.git $ make $ ./btrfs
Hoping that this may help you

Hi,
Sorry to ask what's probably a painfully obvious question, but I'd like to use your btrfs filesystem label command. For the life of me, I can't quite figure out what the process would be to download the btrfs-progs sources and apply your patch and use the command. Can you point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
