Offer delete version when rollback

February 18, 2025 — BarryK

Posted recently about improvement when rollback to the previous version:

Usually, the reason that you would rollback to the previous version, is if you had done a version update but it is broken. Then you can reboot and in the initrd menu choose "Rollback to previous version".

In that situation, it would be best to get rid of the version that you have rolled-back from. As it is broken, you would rather it be completely gone. Now, there is a question, asking if you want to do this, see commit:

I am just about to make another improvement; also delete the "easy_<version-rolled-back-from>_amd64.sfs" under the 'sfs' folder, as that won't be needed either.
