Hi - Apologies in advance for asking a noob question, but I couldn't find this information anywhere. 0 down vote favorite I have a 20 gb SSD device on my laptop that i decided to try bcache on. I followed the instructions to convert my /home (ext4) to use bacache, and it worked fine. It seemed to work, but for some time now, I've been getting an error on boot: error on 0f3bbb55-6839-4ed6-8127-7976a969f726: corrupted btree at bucket 17571, block 483, 61 keys, disabling caching I figure I could try and repair this, but I've decided I'm probably better off just disabling bcache - I don't know enough about this to risk losing data/hair if something breaks, and I think I'd be better off using the partition as root/swap. My question is, is there a way to safely stop using bcache without reformatting the backing device? Is it as simple as restoring the ext4 superblock and unregistering the device? (Note, the filesystem on /home seems to be fine - i think it's just disabling the caching) I am using /dev/sda7 as my backing device, and /dev/sdb2 as the caching device (/dev/sdb1 is root). If it matters, I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 with kernel 3.13.0-21-generic. Here's a link to this question on stackoverflow, if you'd like to answer there for posterity - otherwise I'll post what ever info you respond with. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22820492/how-to-disable-bcache-on-device Thank you! --greg michalec -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bcache" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
