I mean, Snapper did its job. My hardware failed. I managed to get it going again by hammering the button with my finger.
Yeah, I get that.
It’s more that your post reminded me of another one I’d seen where someone didn’t read one of those “advisories” before updating Arch. And Timeshift couldn’t save them, so they had to figure out how to get everything up and running again.
If I recall correctly, they did get it running again fine, it just took a few hours. But I’ve been meaning to try and find somewhere to learn more about fixing failed boot, but the spartan grub prompt scares me, lmao!
I’m assuming Snapper can fail for the same reason Timeshift did for that guy.
This is what scares me with snapper.
It’s reliable so I haven’t had to figure out what to do if/when it does break.
