sorry i pasted the wrong email: Hi, I have a problem with my 4 2TB disk Raid5 (most likely btrfs) after I accidentally deleted first drive by installing Ubuntu on it (/dev/sda automatic choice) then I discovered the raid isn't working and by closer inspecting it hexdump I discovered first ~12Mb of data are missing. Is it possible to recover it somehow? What I did was to zero superblock then add the first drive - everything seems fine according to /proc/mdstat.
