Some time ago they did add systemd-boot as a supported option and apparently it also generates one entry per snapshot.

I haven't tried it though so I don't know for sure. (I have my own custom systemd-boot setup that predates theirs, and since my setup uses signed UKIs and theirs doesn't, I don't care to switch to theirs. I can still switch snapshots manually with `btrfs subvol` anyway; it just might require a live CD in case the default snapshot doesn't boot.)



I'm using Tumbleweed with btrfs snapshots, systemd-boot and transparent disk encryption (using TPM + measured boot), works fine.

Currently this needs to be set up semi-manually (select some options in the installer, then run some commands after install), but it'll be automatic soon.
