Yes, it works on ext4 here.

That's my next test, but I've used sysrescd to set up btrfs before, so I
doubt that's the cause.

4.1.30 - then I realised that sysrescd defaults to an older kernel (my
rescue version in /boot always boots to the alt kernel). I tried the alt
kernel, which is 4.4.17, and it worked!

Many thanks, Joost. It always helps to have someone point out the one
obvious point I've overlooked!
