Hello List! After a few years (like two?) of wandering around, I'm finally back using ArchLinux and wonder why I ever went on searching for something better in the first place. Feels good to be home.. Well, I installed ArchLinux a while back on my Laptop and switched yesterday to using btrfs as my fs for everything except boot, because of everything else being encrypted. Okay, I followed the wiki-article "Installing btrfs on root" (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Installing_on_Btrfs_root) and everything went just fine (it does sometimes). So I now have a subvolume __active which represents /, one for home, one for usr and one for var. I then wanted to test the rollback-feature presented to me during boot and created a snapshot of the subvolume __active. I tried using this during, but it obviously fails, because of not having anything in /usr and /var and /home. So, my question (yes, finally) is: Am I missing something or is just not possible to use different subvolumes (like __active, home, usr, var) and being able to rollback your system during boot? As far as I know btrfs-snapshots are not recursive. So wouldn't it be better (being-able-to-rollback-wise) to just have one subvolume so that you can really rollback everything in case something went wrong? Or is there a way to combine the benefits of having different subvolumes and still being able to rollback the system? I hope I am making any sense.. It's still before the first cup of coffee, alas. Thank you in advance, Christian.
