Description:grub-btrfs improves the grub bootloader by adding a btrfs snapshots sub-menu, allowing the user to boot into snapshots.

grub-btrfs supports manual snapshots as well as snapper, timeshift, and yabsnap created snapshots.

Warning: booting read-only snapshots can be tricky
If you wish to use read-only snapshots, /var/log or even /var must be on a separate subvolume. Otherwise, make sure your snapshots are writable. See Antynea/grub-btrfs#92 for more info.

This project includes its own solution. Refer to the documentation.
