how would i be able to delete something off this btrfs partition
again? i saw the following messages in the archives which seem to be a
little similar ... except a reboot and therfor a remount did not help:
* http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1265666/match=enospc

rt@tv:~$ rm -rf /media/388gb-data/.Trash-1000/info/foto.trashinfo
rm: cannot remove `/media/388gb-data/.Trash-1000/info/foto.trashinfo':
No space left on device

rt@tv:~$ btrfs filesystem df /media/388gb-data/
Data: total=260.59GB, used=254.56GB
System: total=32.00MB, used=24.00KB
Metadata: total=128.00GB, used=120.01GB
Looks like there is a bit of space.
Try to mount with
   '-onospace_cache,clear_cache,enospc_debug'
and check if it still reports an ENOSPC error.
still same error.

Will result in anything reported in 'dmesg' output?
[ 6431.514454] device label 388gb-data devid 1 transid 1086 /dev/sda6
[ 6431.514969] btrfs: disabling disk space caching
[ 6431.514977] btrfs: force clearing of disk cache
tried the same with kernel versions from
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/:
* 3.2.20
* 3.4.0
with version 3.4.0, i could delete one tiny file, but only one. peter
mentioned before to run the rm as root. yes, i did that, with all
kernel versions, the error was the same all the time.
