Butterbian-XFCE Moved to Forky

Help & Troubleshooting
1

So I updated my Butterbian-XFCE install to Forky and when I did that it broke the BTRFS from auto updating the grub snapshot menu after an apt transaction. I was able to fix it with the below. This may help someone else who does the same thing.

If you prefer a snapshot menu regeneration during apt transactions instead of (or alongside) the inotify daemon, you can add an apt hook.

sudo nano /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99update-grub

Paste the following block into the file and save:

DPkg::Post-Invoke {
    "command -v update-grub >/dev/null 2>&1 || exit 0; update-grub";
};

Despite the label of Testing I have found Forky to be quite stable, though it gets a lot of updates. I use on my laptop that I take to work with me and have been since the beginning of the year. So far I haven’t had a single issue.

Yea Forky seems good so far. I am used to allot of updates since I normally use Arch based systems.
