How to mount xbian partition on ubuntu?
Hi all,
I'm new to xbian. I want to edit the files in my SD card using my computer, whether on Windows 7 or Ubuntu 14.04. However, when I insert the SD card, the Ubuntu cannot mount the Xbian partition, and gives the following error: and when I type Code: dmesg | tail Now what should I do to access the contents of xbian partition on SD card!? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - P.S. The reason I want to have access to the contents of my SD card using PC is that my xbian has frozen (black screen on boot) and I don't have backup of my files!! P.P.S. Can I ssh into a frozen xbian using PuTTY? If yes, what is the default IP address!!!? |

How to access BTRFS/LZ4 partition!?
Hi everybody,
I recently installed Xbian on my RPi B+. I wanted to have access to the contents of my SD card in my PC, using Ubuntu. However, it fails to mount the xbian partition, and gives the following error: I searched on the net, and realized that its file system type is BTRFS, and it has LZ4 compression. Now the questions is this: How can we have access to the contents of this SD card, using a PC/Laptop!? (Note: For some reasons, I can neither use the xbian file manager, nor the SSH.) |

RE: How to mount xbian partition on ubuntu?
XBian uses a compressed version of BTRFS that can't be mounted in a standard linux distribution.

Does it requires some special packages - like btrfs-tools? I also need to mount it. Because I changed some config files and now I can't connect to xbian using SSH. Do you can provide some more information on this topic, please? Edit: OK, I found the solution: 1. install btrfs-tools 2. sudo mount -o compress=zlib /dev/mapper/sda7_crypt /mnt Now you can access the files in /mnt/ |

Patch the kernel for lz4 btrfs compression is the only way.
