That's why God invented OpenSUSE Tumbleweed for all your stable rolling release needs.
As an Arch User who keeps hearing about OpenSUSE being a more stable rolling release....mind going into it a bit more? I'm happy on my system, mind, but idk, could be I'm missing out on something big for not making the jump. If nothing else, I'll know my options
Yeah, either openSUSE or Gentoo will probably fix my issues good and proper.
I use Gentoo. Most of my fstab entries are by partuuid, which works for me.
To be frank I went away from Gentoo for much the same reason. And the constant compilation. I only used it once after that for a small project where I needed to minimise what actually lands in the OS.
But all that was years ago.
I've had great results with EndeavourOS
So it is btrfs snapshot time again and making it a bootable backup before
pacman -Syu?I have had only single time I remember when the Arch upgrade truly fucked up the system: libreadline.so was broken so bash didn't work. :D
I always have a second bootable system in case the main system is unable to boot... So I can at least troubleshoot the main system.
I have multiple devices, but I just use my trusty KNOPPIX LiveCD to unlock the disk and move everything onto an external hard drive before either troubleshooting via chroot or just doing a clean install.
Fedora + Nix package manager and never look back!
