I have #linux #fedora 38 and I've installed it with full disk encryption and #BTRFS. I use #timeshift to do some backups, my question is:
What if I screw my system and can't even turn it on to restore a timeshift snapshot?
I saw a video of a guy installing an app (forgot the name) that could add snapshots items to the #grub, so I could recover before initializing the OS. I tried but without success (he did on #arch in the video).
