BTRFS restore question — newb, be gentle
Something I noticed is that the instructions here before step 2 suggest that the files /etc/initcpio/install/grub-btrfs-overlayfs and /etc/initcpio/hooks/grub-btrfs-overlayfs might exist, and they don't for me. Worth noting that I installed through pacman, which may be a reason they don't exist if I'm reading those instructions correctly.

How to replicate SpiralLinux snapshot + rollback in plain debian?
In Debian, I see that there is a custom installer "Spiral Linux" (https://spirallinux.github.io) with non-default settings that achieves the same kind of mechanism using "grub-btrfs" (https://github.com/Antynea/grub-btrfs) in combination with "snapper-rollback" (https://github.com/jrabinow/snapper-rollback) and a BTRFS subvolume layout suggested by the Arch wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Snapper#Suggested_filesystem_layout).

Kali unkaputtbar/snapper not appearing on grub
When the issue first arrived (around 01/11/2023, IIRC), I did try posting an "Issue" on the GitHub page for grub-btrfs (located here), & more specifically on Issue #254, however, for whatever reason (at that time) I wasn't able to make a post on that Issue/forum.
