Hi there, greetings from the creator of SpiralLinux. Thanks a lot for the thorough demonstration of the Btrfs / Snapper functionality, your video virtually the only one that has bothered to look into that feature. Regarding the comment at 3:25 about the 300MiB partition size for multiple kernels, keep in mind that is only for the partition where `/boot/efi` gets mounted; which only contains a few small EFI files. The kernel images are outside of that directory in `/boot/` which is on the main partition. Thanks again for the well-done video! Cheers.
Fantastic spin, and thanks for the correction!
Hi there. I couldn’t get gnome version to work with gnome right after the first boot. Don’t know what was causing it
Good weekend !!! all viewers, great video as alway's....
Thanks, you too!
Thank you, Mr. Stephen, for selecting a good Linux distribution for new users. It is a thoughtful gesture, and I am sure that new users will appreciate your help. And I am curious which snapshot management tool you prefer to use: Snapper or Timeshift?
Glad it was helpful! I generally prefer Snapper, but Timeshift is excellent too! :)
Very nice to give Spiral an extra shoutout; it is really worthwhile to read the webpage on the how and what (and the who > also the developer of Geckolinux). Next to Siduction this is the Debian spin you want to turn to if you like Debian, but also want a lot QoL improvements already preconfigured. Without unnecessary bloat! Happy he is back with a new set of iso's! Thanx Stephen.
Indeed, and thanks for watching!
Very nice Stephan, great job!
Thank you! Cheers!
Those rebootable snapshots done automatically is pretty neat. Looks really nice overall.
Very handy indeed!
I Got to have CHROME ! How do I install it ?????
With SpiralLinux, I expect an easy way would be to install the Flatpak:
flathub.org/apps/com.google.Chrome
Good luck! :)
@@stephenstechtalks5377 I am using Spiral Plasma, I installed Chrome via flatpak - Spiral Deb includes flatpak support
Have you tried Brave? Basically un-googled chrome/chromium
Debian is always so behind with packages why even use debian based distro's ?
Debian Sid is a rolling release bleeding edge channel (close to Arch) if you need the freshest packages. :)
My problem is always finding something that is packaged that is odd that is normally found in AUR. They seem to package most of what people create on github 98% of time I can find it in AUR. I have not landed on a distribution that does this.
Change the repos to "testing" branch, which is pretty darn stable. For bleeding edge and latest packages, as Stephen said, go for sid.
