rEFInd doesn't show BTRFS snapshots.

What I want:

To boot into a BTRFS snapshots from rEFind boot manager. But rEFInd doesn't show the snapshots.


Additional Info:

  1. So, apparently, to restore the BTRFS snapshot of a root subvolume, I shouldn't do it with the root partition being actively used.
  2. So, I need to boot into the desired snapshot from the boot manager itself.
  3. GRUB has grub-btrfs, which lets you boot into snapshot from OS selection screen itself.
  4. rEFInd has refind-btrfs, which should do the same as grub-btrfs. But it didn't in my case. I am not seeing any way to boot into a snapshot from rEFInd.
  5. I use BTRFS Assistant with snapper to manage snapshots.
  6. I am not seeing any way to restore the snapshot from live environment too.
  7. I am using CachyOS (Arch) with Plasma DE.
  8. I suspect the reason is my unusual /efi /boot partition layout. (attached below)

Second Heart cooldown time 35 Minutes?

EDIT: Can anybody ask around reddit? They keep banning me.

Second Heart should have 300 - 200 seconds ( 5 - 3.3 minutes ) timeout. But for me it is 35 MINUTES, does anybody know why?

Tier 4:

Tier 5++:

Additional Info:

One of the images contains cooldown for Self-Ice. That one is actually seconds and work as it intended.

How to restore root subvolume BTRFS snapshot?

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 )

  • 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)

    Where is Lutris Time played data is saved?

    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 😅

    I guess I borked my System

    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.

    I would really appreciate URGENT help

    If you need any more details I can provide.

    EDIT

    1. I used BTRFS Assistant to restore the root partition. And I did it while the OS is running.

    ( I previously did that and got no issues )

    Unable to hide 'tools' in rEFInd

    I want to hide the about tag in rEFInd. So, I did according to the info in config and website, which is to add a showtools line with no options.

    And, nothing happens. I still see About, Shutdown, Reboot, Firmware tools in the rEFInd screen

     This is my rEFInd config containing showtools 👇
        
    # Default is shell,memtest,gdisk,apple_recovery,windows_recovery,mok_tool,about,hidden_tags,shutdown,reboot,firmware,fwupdate
    # To completely disable scanning for all tools, provide a showtools line
    # with no options.
    #
    #showtools shell, bootorder, gdisk, memtest, mok_tool, apple_recovery, windows_recovery, about, hidden_tags, reboot, exit, firmware, fwupdate
    showtools
    
      

    Eventhough the previous showtools line is a just a comment, I removed it too. And still nothing happens.

    Does anybody have any idea?

    I only want Shutdown, Reboot.


    SOLVED

    It seems like a rEFInd problem in latest version.

    Why I shouldn't use Discover on CachyOS (Plasma) ?

    I installed CachyOS with Plasma DE and found it has no discover in it. When I searched on their sub lots of people say that one shouldn't use Discover with any Arch distro as it will break the system. Can anybody clarify why?

    Also if I am not supposed to use Discover, can anybody suggest an actual GUI application store? Unlike Octopi (which I consider just as a TUI with check boxes and columns)

    Edit: I only use Discover for find and install new apps.

    For updating, I just use paru.

    Just started my blind playthrough (no spoilers please) and noticed the cyberpunk logo is different from what I saw before.

    Can't boot into Luks2 + Refind

    I installed CachyOS with BTRFS, LUKS2 , REFIND.

    After successful installation I'm not seeing any prompt for password nor the linux boot entry on refind.

    Note: I didn't do any lvm or raid.

    What should I do?

    Can I delete BTRFS snapshots from middle?

    Let's say i made 10 snapshots on top of the base.

    Now can i delete snap no. 5? Will the snaps after 5 will be affected?

    Solved

    Yes, one can delete consecutive snapshots. The data won't be deleted unless all snaps ( reference points ) get deleted.

    Note: If you delete the original file and delete all the snapshots made when the file is still there, the file will get deleted permanently.
