[SOLVED] BTRFS boot error

Hi all,

I'm having since yesterday the following root error when booting:

BTRFS Error: free space inode generation (0) did not match free space cache generation (12376) 

Both my / and /home partitions are BTRFS, /boot is ext2.

I have been searching a while for it but can't find anything... When I powered off my computer everything was OK and I'm sure there is a lot of free space yet. What could it be?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Re: [SOLVED] BTRFS boot error

try remounting with the clear_cache option. Worked for me whenever I've had space cache errors. The error being about inodes might point to something else, though.
