    This video is incredibly informative and well-presented! The detailed walkthrough of creating, deleting, comparing, reverting, and rolling back snapshots with Snapper on Fedora is extremely helpful for both beginners and advanced users alike. I appreciate how you broke down each step, making complex processes more understandable.
    The demonstration of each feature not only highlights the versatility of Snapper but also showcases its potential for enhancing system stability and data safety. It's great to see practical examples of how to manage and recover from potential system issues, ensuring that important data is never lost.
    Kudos for also including real-world scenarios and explaining the benefits of using Snapper in different contexts. This really adds value to the tutorial and helps viewers understand the practical applications of these commands.
    Looking forward to more tutorials like this. Keep up the great work! 👏

    Recently moved from openSUSE to Fedora 40. Thanks for the very helpful tutorials on setting this up. Was spoiled by openSUSE doing it for me before.

    Can do the same tutorial Fedora install with grub-btrfs and the GUI-based BTRFS Assistant? Thank you.

    Thanks for your nice tutorial.
    I tried to follow your instructions, snapper works pretty well using dnf package manager (it would be great if it create snashots with other package provider aka flatpak ecc..)
    But I have an issue when I try booting from a snap in Grub2 :
    "error: ../../grub-core/commands/efi/tmp.c:150:Uknown TPM error."
    I tried to fix hour in my Bios but it didnt solve my issue, TPM is activated in BIOS, I would prefer to keep it.
    If you have an idea to solve this issue, it would be helpful ! I'm gonna try to follow again the snapper TPM instructions you gave on last video..

      Unfortunately, it only works with the dnf command-line tool. I wish it also worked with flatpak and gnome-software.
      Regarding the TPM error, try this: sysguides.com/install-fedora-with-luks-fde-snapshot-rollback-support#18-issues-and-possible-solutions
      Hopefully, this will resolve the issue.

      I disabled TPM in my BIOS and snapshots works !
      I have to check how I could make it with TPM enabled now !

      Simply choose the most recent kernel you have installed.

    Once all installed - can you add a GUI to snapper on Fedora?

    Seems snapper does not play well with Fedora41 or more so DNF5. The first test fails to auto take snapshots

      I used command $ sudo dnf4 install ps_mem and the test snapshot worked

      Check out my article. I have explained how to create a dnf5 action file for Snapper. I plan to upload an updated video for Fedora 41 within the next two to three days.
