Hi,
I successfully installed Xbian on my Pi2 since about a month now and everything was finally running smoothly, but a few days ago, I rebooted to test init scripts and the system could boot anymore.
It stays stuck on Switching to root and sometimes passes one step further (setting up x socket directories ...)
EDIT :
I just tried to add rescue_early to the cmdline.txt and i was able to get a shell.
The btrfs partition was mounted already and i was able to do "chroot /rootfs" where I could find all my usual files.
I ran btrfs check on the unmounted partition and it found no error.
I guess all this means that my filesystem is fine but I'm still stuck on swithching root during the boot process.
Can someone help me fix this ?
Thanks,
Regards.

I changed my command line with "init=/bin/bash" but never went that far so I suspect a btrfs problem.
I tried to run btrfsck on a new ubuntu desktop install (14.04) but it keeps displaying the following error when trying to do anyhting with btrfs : Couldn't open because of unsupported option features (10).
I reckon it has something to do with the btrfs version i'm using and tried to compile the latest sources of btrfs-tools but the install didn't work, I updated to version 3.14 wih an ubuntu package but the problem is the same.
