attempting to restructure my fs snapshots the proper way, previous way was like this: (subvol=0) boot etc var ... SNAPSHOTS/01-16-14/{boot,etc,dev, proc..} SNAPSHOTS/03-22-14... etc i removed all but the 01-16-14 via sub del. i then thought 'i don't want the data at top-level anyways as its a botched upgrade, so i'll just revert to the last snapshot via a mv. so i rm'd everything at top level except snapshots, cd snapshots/01-16-14;mv * ../.. now an ls -a at the dated dir shows empty, my files are where they should be so i really just want this to be gone. and a sub list on the top-level mount path lists: # btrfs sub list -ta /mnt/1 ID gen top level path -- --- --------- ---- 291 199502 5 SNAPSHOTS/01-16-14 yet, oddly enough btrfs sub del really doesn't want to delete it, even though it's entirely empty and not in use either. # btrfs sub del /mnt/1/SNAPSHOTS/01-16-14 Transaction commit: none (default) Delete subvolume '/mnt/1/SNAPSHOTS/01-16-14' ERROR: cannot delete '/mnt/1/SNAPSHOTS/01-16-14' - Directory not empty -- Shaun Reich, KDE Software Developer (kde.org) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
