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'm using CachyOS (Arch) with BTRFS. And tried to restore snap of root subvolume and it didn't work ( see previous post ).

If I remember correctly, i successfully restored root subvolume before. Take it with a grain of salt.

Some people on my previos posts said that I shouldn't have tried restore root subvol while system is actively running through the subvol.

Now my question is,

How to restore a snap of root subvolume ?

Edit: I know how to restore a snapshot. Just need help with root subvol snapshot.

I use BTRFS Assistant with snapper. And rEFInd doens't have boot to snapshot option. (I installed and it didn't work )

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 😅

Thank You. I've looking for this forever.

[–] gpstarman 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I'm not seeing any options to select a particular subvolume for installation.

Also, my entire BTRFS partition is LUKS2 encrypted.

[–] gpstarman 2 points 3 weeks ago

Looks like I have to do this for every game separately.

[–] gpstarman 3 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

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)

I am gonna reinstall my system.

But I want to keep the Time played stat of the game.

I found all other data of lutris like banners, runners, runtimes but not this.

Any Idea where can I find Time played data, if it's even saved in file ?

Also does any you know where the KDE Plasma clipboard data is saved ? I've been using that as mini watch later list 😅

It simply restarts.🙂

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.

[–] gpstarman 1 points 3 weeks ago

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.

[–] gpstarman 1 points 3 weeks ago

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 solved🤦🏽‍♂️.

Also Brave is now significantly slower now.

I also noticed few are wierd or not there at all. ( Plasma 6.3.1)

Context: I updated my CachyOS (Arch) BTRFS system. Some new things caused few problems especially brave browser(missing tabs), some icons missing.

So I wanted to go back to previous snapshot.

What I did: I first restored my home subvol which I saved before update. I worked.

Then I tried to restored my root partition. This is where I got the problem.

I got this error.
