But restoring home subvol worked just fine though.
Anyways I should look what's up with refind-btrfs
. Probably just gonna switch to grub.

I use rEFInd. And installed refind-btrfs
and it didn't do anything.
Also I use BTRFS assistant with snapper.
I've found it on ~/.local/share/lutris/pga.db
.
Btw, do you know where the KDE Plasma clipboard data is saved ? I've been using that as mini watch later list ๐
I'm not seeing any options to select a particular subvolume for installation.
Also, my entire BTRFS partition is LUKS2 encrypted.
Looks like I have to do this for every game separately.
There is no lutris directory in .config. Some other person said it is available on ~/.local/share/lutris/pga.db
. I cannot confirm it right now, because I am on limited connection.
Also, I don't have separate home partition. But I do have a separate home BTRFS subvolume though.
Is it possible to install OS on particular subvolume while leaving others untouched? (Calamares installer - CachyOS)
It simply restarts.๐
Short Answer: No, kernels are not snapshot ted
Long Answer: It's bit weird in my case.
Boot, EFI, Root are three separate partitions in my case.
Root mounts to /
Boot mounts to /Boot
Efi mounts to /boot/efi
It is this way because when I initially partitioned the EFI, I gave very less storage. But linux kernels are bigger than that. So, either I have move the partition. Which I didn't prefer because It'll take a lot of time and it said possibility of data loss.
So, I simply created new partition.
By default, CachyOS only snapshot /@ and /@/home. Which didn't include /boot because it's a separate partition it's own and not even BTRFS.
Yeah. I've been thinking about going back to Mint too. But the only thing stoping is that Arch is rolling distro. Which means I can get updates sooner. I mean linux gaming is getting better every day. I didn't like to be on lag for a year of improvements. Also Vavle investing lot on Arch.
I chose CachyOS, because it is made for gaming, it has decent GUI tools of its own and on top all that it's still Arch btw. So I can get benefits of Arch too.
Rolling distro can be both boon and bane. And now it didn't end up very well for me.
If you mean to ask why do i have to restore snapshot in the first place, I updated the system. And I didn't like the new update. First thing I noticed is Brave replaced all my group tabs to new tabs. When I searched about it, I came to know it's a common , critical issue that still haven't been solved๐คฆ๐ฝโโ๏ธ.
Also Brave is now significantly slower now.
I also noticed few are wierd or not there at all. ( Plasma 6.3.1)
First of all thanks.
I booted live Mint.
Mounted btrfs partition.
I renamed the backup (snapshot that btrfs assistant created while originally restoring before) to @.
Now my system boots but .snapshots are in original @ (which now I renamed as something else). I want those snapshots or delete altogether (for freeing up space).
I tried to rsync old snaps to new @. It worked, but now I have delete the snaps from old @ (source of snaps). Which I cannot do for some reason. It says read only file system. I typed sudo btrfs property set -ts /path/to/snapshot ro false
it retuned error cannot retrieve properties
Then I tried to delete .snapshots subvolume altogether, but it says directory not empty.
I used sudo btrfs subvolume delete /path/to/.snapshots
(.snapshots is a separate subvol mounted on old @ subvol)
Now I have a working system but all my old snaps are stuck on old root. Which I cannot delete.
Idk what to do.๐ตโ๐ซ
So, I cannot play Aliens: Fireteam Elite by myself with no internet connection ?
