No sure what is the problem.

I first get a message saying
"Scanning for btrfs filesystem"

Then I get asked to either skip mounting to or to go in manual recovery. I first skipped and tried to mount them as root (sudo mount -a). The mount command does not seam to be recognized as I get this "mount: No such file or directory".

I tried to look around the net but I can`t find a problem similar enough to try some solution.

I found this https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/477122-Boot-halted-by-btrfs-issue and figured I could give it a try, at least for the lsinitrd part and see what I get. But dracut is not installed and I cant seam to be able to install it. as I get that when I do.

E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

I tried to install them all manually (one by one) up until I manage to reduce the message to

And that pretty much sums up where I am stuck now.

Any help would be really appreciated.

](*,)...

Mounting is solved... turned out that somehow, the name of the devices changed between 12.04 and 14.04. The name of the devices was "SCSI-SATA_WD...." and the are now "ata-WD_...". Went into fstab and simply changed the device ID as they were listed in the /dev/disk/by-ID folder.
