  • Heh welcome!

    If I was to give anyone advice it’d be to set up a way to make really solid notes/documentation. Be it a text/markdown file or a google doc. Put down the commands you run, put down the steps and then a link to where you found it. As you muck around and so on you’re going to remember that you wanted to get xyz going and you struggled and you can then refer back to those notes.

    That has been the single most valuable thing I’ve learnt from this whole Linux endeavour I’ve been on.

    When I reinstall I just follow my notes to get all the devices and so on going. Definitely worth the trouble!

    Good luck and tell us how you go!










  • I have to say that I used to be a timeshift fan but I’ve started moving to snapper instead. Both are very similar but with snapper you can have multiple configs, one per sub vol. each with different settings. I like having a separate root and home schedules set up. Means I can restore one or the other independently. Works a treat.
