DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
|
'btrfs-zero-log' will remove the log tree if log tree is corrupt, which will

|
|
allow you to mount the filesystem again.

|
|
|
|
|
|
The common case where this happens has been fixed a long time ago,

|
|
|

so it is unlikely that you will see this particular problem.
