=> More information.

• Check a btrfs filesystem:

sudo btrfs check {path/to/partition}

• Check and repair a btrfs filesystem (dangerous):

sudo btrfs check --repair {path/to/partition}

• Verify the checksum of each data block (if the filesystem is good):

sudo btrfs check --check-data-csum {path/to/partition}

• Use the n-th superblock (n can be 0, 1 or 2):

sudo btrfs check --super {n} {path/to/partition}
