Endeavour OS: Snapshotting with Timeshift

In this video, I am going to install Timeshift on a fresh installation with the latest ISO of Endeavour OS. I am going to also show you automatic snapshots and how to restore one.

I simply just enjoy Endeavour OS .. The most stable Arch Linux I have ever run. Thank you for your great why to teaching us!

[@taidee]

, cool stuff master Ermanno, thank you. I rely on Timeshift a lot and it has saved me many times from time consuming rebuilds and fault finding.

[@keyboard_g]

Thanks for the video. I don’t know why a distro would ship btrfs without timeshift or snapper.

[@ricardo072]

This is amazing, great work and thanks a lot of sharing your knowledge with us

[@ccs349]

greeting from Myanmar really thank you sir, Please Make more Endeavour OS tutorials. I m today now becoming your new BIG FAN, Sir.

[@MarSanm]

Great video I subscribed to learn more :)

[@mattb7406]

Would love to see comparison video of timeshift vs snapper. And manjaro vs endeavour plasma.

[@seanpaul7069]

Great explanation as usual Ermanno. I’m always learning from your videos. Question. Is it possible to save snapshots to a second drive ? I was getting an error “selected snapshot device is not a system disk” using BTRFS? Both drives are using BTRFS.

[@Ja.KooLit]

Thanks for the video Ermanno and showing the subvolumes. However I still couldnt figure out how to mount with options on dec 2021 arch iso. Ha ha. It keep saying /mnt/@ does not exist. or if I only put /mnt, it says wrong fs ha ha. Anyway, looking forward for your next btrfs arch installation.

[@seanpaul7069]

I don’t think snapshots can be saved to second drive as it’s not Root or the main volume. I was getting the same error.. trying to save snapshots on my second backup drive.

[@mustafababdullah2485]

Hope you're doing okay. Long time no hear anything. 🤣 I got use too seeing you at least at the beginning of the month when the new iso comes out. They must have fixed their server because I used the torrent to get Jan iso. I needed it for a USB I keep one up to date just Incase and throw it in the desk draw.

[@eflinux]

I am just taking some time off. The next video should be coming next week with the Jan 2022 ISO.

[@gelapirtskhelava]

Thanks for amazing video. Is possible to upgrade ISO version without re-installing a system?

[@klanker]

Is there any way to add btrfs @snapshots subvolume for snapper on EndeavourOS (post install) ?

[@nirajxxx2008]

how to restore from iso using timeshift in eos btrfs as there is no timeshift pre-installed

[@alternatuber6698]

Can you show us with Btrfs Assistant as well? Thanks

[@folksurvival]

Could you make videos of distrobutions such as KISS Linux, Alpine Linux and CRUX Linux?

[@zc0rp10]

First! 😁

[@cjaydip]

Until and unless Endevour OS comes up with wifi capabilities at the installation time, I am never going to use it.

[@mustafababdullah2485]

It does have maybe you started the installer before you connected your WiFi. Try it that way. You also have the option to install without internet you'll get xfce4

[@sharktooh76]

btrfs+timeshift is a fantastic combo. however, please stop using gnome.

[@flow5718]

I have my gripes with where gnome has gone with their tablet and mobile first approach. But goddamn it if it ain't stable and actively worked on. Xfce is a good alternative but looks outdated. KDE is buggy. Cinnamon is awesome but not many distros other than Mint have first class support for it.

[@MaazAhmed]

Let people use whatever they like. GNOME is great. It's one of the most polished DEs out there. If I wasn't using a tiling window manager, I'd be using GNOME as my primary DE for sure.
