Bug Description

When I run burg - probe I get an error:

/usr/local/sbin/burg-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?)

Is there a workaround for this? I only have a single subvolume named @.

Even from the grub recovery console I can browse my btrfs partition. Could i hack the code so it would look in the right location for me?

I am seeing the same behavior with the following output to stdout:

What appears of significance here as well to me is the fact that this all start with line 2 stating issues with the GPT partition label. Is this related?
