1. If you would like grub-btrfs menu to automatically update when a snapshot is created or deleted:
|
||||
* If you are using Timeshift, newer versions of it mount their snapshots to `/run/timeshift/$pidofthecurrentlyrunnigtimeshift/backup/timeshift-btrfs`. The OpenRC-Daemon can automatically take care of the detection of the correct PID and directory if you set the variable `timeshift_auto` to `true` in `etc/conf.d/grub-btrfsd`. In this case the variable `snapshots` has no influence.
|
||||
* If you don't want to use `timeshift_auto`, set the variable `snapshots` in the file `/etc/conf.d/grub-btrfsd` to the path of your snapshot directory. By default this is set to snappers default directory, `./snapper`.
|
||||
For Timeshift keep in mind, that newer versions of Timeshift will not work with the `/run/timeshift/backup/timeshift-btrfs/snapshots` path. However there is a [workaround](https://www.lorenzobettini.it/2022/07/timeshift-and-grub-btrfs-in-linux-arch/) that works for now.
|
||||
* Use `rc-config add grub-btrfsd default`, to start the grub-btrfsd daemon the next time the system boots.
|
||||
* To start `grub-btrfsd` right now, run `rc-service grub-btrfsd start`
|
||||
* `grub-btrfsd` automatically watches the snapshot directory of timeshift (/run/timeshift/backup/timeshift-btrfs/snapshots)
|
||||
and updates the grub-menu when a change occurs.

||||
* Currently untested for snapper
|
