  • Thanks, it’s looking like I’ll be doing a reset. It looks like grub-btrfs creates its own entries and points towards the boot directory within the /.snapshot/ directory, completely ignoring my boot partitions current files.

    Ubuntu was never my first choice but was necessary for using my arc380 with plex transcoding. Might as well take this opportunity to move back to debian with bookworm. Only trouble is I would prefer a 6.2 over 6.1 kernel distribution, and while I enjoy arch on my laptops, I’m not sure I’d want to update my server so frequently.

    Well, I tried rolling back to another snapshot and checked my kernel params and its not in there. My port issue seems to be fixed but i still do not boot into the new kernel after updating and rebooting. Edit: I think I need to clean up my /boot directory somehow since it’s partition is not btrfs. But I’m unsure how to do it, or where to read up on it.


  • I think you’ve hit the nail on the head. The way grub-btrfs works is by changing the default root snapshot subvolume. I’m still not sure what I did wrong to get the rollback stuck to the particular kernel. But I’ll give what you’ve written here a try. Thanks again.

    Yes, I’ve done that to no avail. And when I run “dpkg -l | grep linux-image” it shows I have five different kernels on my system, despite me only having the latest one installed through apt. Edit: Scratch that, I think I was misreading the input but the fact remains I can’t seem to get rid of 6.2.0-24
