Hello,

I added another device to the / filesystem
(btrfs device add).

Now I can't boot off it, even though kernel sees both devices (sda2, sdb2).

Am I screwed or is there any way how to convince the kernel to assemble the / filesystem?

Thank you

Lubos

Lubos ,

If you have a multi-device btrfs filesystem you need to run btrfsctrl -a to have the kernel register the filesystem. Tehre were some open bug reports about this in various distros.
