Please include btrfs-tools

Issue #5 new
James Fran Holla created an issue

I just have a case where the crypted btrfs root does decrypt, but hangs on the mount command without any error message (only reboot helps). And without the btrfs-tools it seems basically impossible to even see what is broken or going on. Most other filesystems have a fsck that is included, however btrfs is a bit special in that regard.

    Hi,

    btrfs-progs requires execinfo.h, which does not seems to be part of uClibc thus I can't provide you btrfs-progs bundle just like that.

    The quickest way would be for you to download source of btrfs-progs and build it with make static on your host system, which I presume is glibc based. Note that you would need static library archives for libuuid, lzo and blkid. You could also hash out the line

    echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk
    

    in init file so if the mounts actually prints anything in kernel logs, it would pop out on the screen.
