One of the really cool things with the openSUSE Installer is it lets you configure btrfs and snapper right from the installer. This results in two things:
1. Every time you install something using `zypper` it automatically takes a pre/post snapshot
2. You can boot into a snapshot right from grub and restore it
This is a pretty powerful feature.
https://github.com/david-cortes/snapper-in-debian-guide is a guide on how
to do this with Debian. Once it's setup, it'll automatically take pre/post snapshots when you run `apt` and you can boot them from grub. It's great.
I am wondering if the Debian developers would consider adding this into the Debian installer so it's easier to configure/setup/enable.
I really feel this is a huge value-add ability and I think it would benefit
the Debian user-base to have this available in the installer.
