No snapper, no rollbacks without btrfs I'm afraid.

I believe that it works with LVM snapshots as well, but then you've traded the problem of Btrfs for the problem of LVM.
Yo! Remember me talking about maybe having to 'eat chalk' regarding Btrfs enthusiasm, maybe a few months ago? :-)

Still working without a hitch, got some system updates meanwhile, was full to bursting several times meanwhile (only 1GB left! ALLARRM!), and so on.

I'm still wondering about why I'd need all that snapshotting shit, because it just works.

Casheeex!

I hope it continues to work for you for years to come. :-)
Me too! :)
I didn't know snapper supported LVM. That is nice. OpenSUSE's installer probably doesn't support it with its snapper setup though. Default is / btrfs and allowing snapshots if the disk is big enough. (More than 30gb?)
