The BASE Topic: Hands On btrFS by Lee Lammert
At the Nov 2022 stlLINUX presentation covering btrFS, we could not do the hands-on portion due to an issue with the Zoom client, ...but this time we will! In to this Base presentation we will:
- Install from scratch with subvolumes;
- Update and see the snapshots created;
- Delete extra snapshots;
- Blow it up and recover.
Btrfs is a modern copy-on-write file system for Linux with advanced features for fault tolerance, repair and easy administration.
The MAIN Topic: YADM - Yet Another Dotfiles Manager by Sean Twiehaus
In this presentation Sean will demonstrate 'Yet Another Dotfiles Manager' -- YADM . YADM's tag line is "If you know how to use Git, then you already know how to use YADM"; but, if you don't know Git, then YADM is a great way to learn Git.
This presentation will demonstrate the following capabilities of YADM:
- Keep dotfiles in-sync between machines
- Use Alternate files to have different settings on different systems.
- Bootstrap your system using YADM.
You should know how to use YADM to keep and manage your dotfiles. You will want to know how and why you might want to use many of the features listed on YADM's website .
Details will be published on https://www.sluug.org/ when available.
