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.
