From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

In my case, The rollback feature bricked its onw disk because on a 30g system partition, an install with a separate home partition (not included in the backups) will drown itself in factory settings backups.
It's a great feature. Give it ample space and trim down on the all the snapshots afterwards.
