Need Assistance....in changing the default location of timeshift snapshot from default location /run/timeshift/backup to say new sub-volume /snapshots on the same partition or even better to new partition.
I looked up a quite a few resources but unable to configure it.
Run in a terminal sudo systemctl edit grub-btrfs.path
Then edit [PATH] PathModified to reflect the /run/ path to your new snapshot directory.
If that goes south you can revert your changes by running sudo systemctl revert grub-btrfs.path
This is enough information to shoot yourself in the foot if you don't know what you are doing in BTRFS or Timeshift, so take it with a whole shaker of salt, please!
Thanks, everyone for the quick response. this is what I love about the garuda forum. @SGS --> I was trying with the same SSD to a different subvolume that I created called /snapshots on the same SSD at the same level as /run
@petsam --> Not truly fun in the sense, but like to organize the subvolume.
@Bro --> Yes I tried that, and it makes the snapshots that you save in the different path to enable them in grub during the boot. That is what I was able to infer from following the steps on teejee's website.
Especially with BTRFS. It’s unlike most file systems (except, perhaps, zfs), I have ever used and I’m an old dog, but it has been difficult to wrap my head around some of it. It’s too goddamned fluid.
