As the latest firmware upgrade came with an optimizer, which i accidentally ran without making some space to the device's disk, i have a Jolla I can access now only via recovery mode and telnet. At this point i really don't care for other than saving some pics and videos i haven't had time to backup yet. So, using Shell option in recovery mode, I've mounted rootfs and my sd:

/dev/mmcblk0p28 on /mnt/rootfs type btrfs (ro,relatime,ssd,noacl,space_cache)
/dev/mmcblk1p1 on /mnt/sd type vfat (rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro)

and was able to locate and copy all the photos from the device into an SD card and use that to transfer them to my laptop (windows, if that matters). But I just cannot locate the video files shot with Jolla Camera. Where they can be found / how they can be retrieved?

In recovery mode you need to mount /dev/mmcblk0p28 with subvolume=@home, the default volume is @ which is rootfs.

mkdir /mnt/home
mount -o subvolid=@home /dev/mmcblk0p28 /mnt/home

you need to get your rootfs and home mounted rw, and chroot /mnt/rootfs and execute balance from within the chroot after freeing up some space iirc
