Sami LehtinenIt seems that <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.envs.net/tag/thunar" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Thunar</a> ( <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.envs.net/tag/xubuntu" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Xubuntu</a> default file manager ) just can't get the .Trash folder to work with <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.envs.net/tag/btrfs" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#btrfs</a> volumes using subvol <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.envs.net/tag/mount" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mount</a> option. That's quite a weak achievement. Because the <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.envs.net/tag/swapfile" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#swapfile</a> must be on root volume, and therefore it's logical to use subvolume for all data, so it can be snapshotted. But if snapshots are being used, then <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.envs.net/tag/trash" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#trash</a> feature won't work anymore, due to the limitations linked to the <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.envs.net/tag/subvolumes" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#subvolumes</a>. Yet I personally find this to be incredibly lame and totally pointless and completely unbased limitation. <a class="hashtag" href="https://pleroma.envs.net/tag/linux" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Linux</a> silliness.

DeaDSouL :fedora:<p>Hmmm 🧐,<br />Wouldn’t it be great to have a <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/BASH" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BASH</span></a> script that prepares the fresh installation of <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Fedora" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Fedora</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Linux</span></a> to use <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Snapper" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Snapper</span></a> on <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/BtrFS" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BtrFS</span></a> ?<br />I mean to create the recommended <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/subvolumes" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>subvolumes</span></a> to exclude some directories from being taken in snapshots either because they are useless (such as `/opt`, `/var/cache`.. etc) or it’s better to prevent rolling them back to previous state (such as `/var/log`, `/root`.. etc).<br />And update the <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/fstab" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>fstab</span></a> &amp; <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Grub" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Grub</span></a> configs too.<br />With some other tweaks.</p><p>I might write one 🤔.</p>

Avalanche Linux<p>Our first <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/goal" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>goal</span></a> is to have an <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/InstallScript" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>InstallScript</span></a>, because that is something I have experience with already (and should therefor be attainable before the end of the year!). It probably won&#39;t have all the bells and whistles I&#39;d like to have (like the granular <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Btrfs" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Btrfs</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/subvolumes" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>subvolumes</span></a> e.g.), but at least set up <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/AlpineLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AlpineLinux</span></a>, a user and the <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/LuminaDesktop" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>LuminaDesktop</span></a> 🙂👍</p>
