Just add borg for offsite backups:
sudo pacman -S borg
borg init --encryption=repokey-blake2 /path/to/borg-repo
borg create --stats /path/to/borg-repo::'{now}' /home /etc --exclude '/home/*/.cache'
Then sync the borg repo with rclone to your cloud storage. Since snapper is already handling your root snapshots, you just need the borg layer for full disaster recovery.
It’s way better than clonezilla imo, you get incremental encrypted and deduplicated backups instead of full disk images every time. Test your recovery, just boot live USB, open LUKS, mount Btrfs, and make sure you can access both snapper snapshots and extract from borg.


Glad it was useful!


I suspect even interpretive tax dance could find an audience these days if you filmed it with the right lighting


Sorry, don’t know what happened there, formatting got messed up :(
