Arch Linux Installer Adds Option To Configure Btrfs Snapshots Post-Install

([Arch Linux] 6 Hours Ago Archinstall 3.0.7)


Archinstall 3.0.7 is out today as the newest feature update to this text-based Arch Linux installer that makes it quick and easy to deploy a new Arch Linux installation.

New to Archinstall 3.0.7 is adding support for configuring Btrfs snapshots post-install. When opting to use a Btrfs file-system, there is now [1]a new option for configuring Btrfs snapshots. From the disk configuration menu either Snapper or Timeshift can be selected.

This addresses [2]this feature request from two years ago seeking the ability to be able to configure Snapper when using Btrfs.

Archinstall 3.0.7 also moves the disk encryption options into the disk configuration menu. Plus there are several bug fixes and other improvements to this updated TUI Arch Linux installer. More details via [3]GitHub .

Several students were asked to prove that all odd integers are prime.
The first student to try to do this was a math student. "Hmmm...
Well, 1 is prime, 3 is prime, 5 is prime, and by induction, we have that all
the odd integers are prime."
The second student to try was a man of physics who commented, "I'm not
sure of the validity of your proof, but I think I'll try to prove it by
experiment." He continues, "Well, 1 is prime, 3 is prime, 5 is prime, 7 is
prime, 9 is... uh, 9 is... uh, 9 is an experimental error, 11 is prime, 13
is prime... Well, it seems that you're right."
The third student to try it was the engineering student, who responded,
"Well, to be honest, actually, I'm not sure of your answer either. Let's
see... 1 is prime, 3 is prime, 5 is prime, 7 is prime, 9 is... uh, 9 is...
well, if you approximate, 9 is prime, 11 is prime, 13 is prime... Well, it
does seem right."
Not to be outdone, the computer science student comes along and says
"Well, you two sort've got the right idea, but you'll end up taking too long!
I've just whipped up a program to REALLY go and prove it." He goes over to
his terminal and runs his program. Reading the output on the screen he says,
"1 is prime, 1 is prime, 1 is prime, 1 is prime..."
