I have this new mageia 4 setup with some btrfs partitions.

My root "/" is on btrfs, working fine. from fstab:

UUID=b2b0263e-a04a-4bd7-86d7-d2ec19a90b84 / btrfs relatime 0 0

then I have a different btrfs formatted partition for steam data on /dev/sdc3

I can mount /dev/sdc3 on /steam manually as root, no problem.

mount /dev/sdc3 /steam -o relatime

However, I cannot mount this filesystem from fstab:

/dev/sdc3 /steam btrfs relatime 0 0

I also tried:

UUID=487e4905-724d-40dd-a83b-d3b576b61d59 /steam btrfs relatime 0 0

(found the UUID using blkid)

When I try to mount this from fstab, I get an error:

[root@novazembla ~]# mount /steam
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc3,
   missing codepage or helper program, or other error

   In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
   dmesg | tail or so.

Of course, I checked as suggested using:

journalctl -n
dmesg | less

but there are no indications of what's going on.

then I tried:

btrfs device scan

and tried to mount from fstab again to no avail (same error and no logging info)

Any ideas?

Am really sorry, the hour must have gotten to me because while I was actually sure I made a btrfs partition, I actually made an ext3 partition...

/dev/sdc3 on /steam type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl,barrier=1,data=ordered)

feeling stupid

Only after fu####ng myself up and posting here did the light finally shine through.
