Grub2 missing snapshots menu entry

Hi,

I’ve just noticed that my system (Tumbleweed 20201022) in Grub2 is missing the snapshots menu entry. I know that previously the case was that /boot has to be on / with btrfs, I’m not sure if this is still the case based on this .

In my case the system is installed with a separate /boot partition formatted to xfs, but / is btrfs. If this case is not supported please let me know otherwise I could use some advice about what to check.

  • grub2-snapper-plugin is installed.

  • My grub.cfg is here

  • My /.snapshots/grub-snapshot.cfg:

 
$ cat /.snapshots/grub-snapshot.cfg  

if  -z "$extra_cmdline" ]; then
  submenu  "Start bootloader from a read-only snapshot" {
    if  x$snapshot_found != xtrue ]; then
      submenu "Not Found" { true; }
    fi
  }
fi

  • My /etc/sysconfig/bootloader config:

**$ **cat /etc/sysconfig/bootloader

What exactly does it mean? Entries were there before and disappeared after update to 20201022? You installed 20201022 and there are no entries?

I know that previously the case was that /boot has to be on / with btrfs, I’m not sure if this is still the case

Yes, it is.

It’s my current version number. As Grub timeout is set to 0 I’m not sure. Also never had to roll back.

If the usecase is not supported then case closed I guess.

Thank you for your help, Arvidjaar.
