When restoration completes a reboot either drops you to a grub prompt, or else boots into a different distro, requiring an update-grub operation to boot into the restored distro.
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Requires two or more drives available, the target drive formatted to EXT4 and with an ESP available
Restore source, stored snapshot to separate, target drive
When restoration completes, close Timeshift and reboot
No Error message at any time Expected behaviour
A reboot of the machine, if the snapshotted distro is Debian-based (includes Debian, Ubuntu and Linux Mint) or Manjaro, should have the restored distro on top of the Grub Menu and boot into it.
ACTUAL BEHAVIOUR
A reboot of the machine will result in one of two (1 of 2) outcomes:
Does not make it to the grub menu, other distribution/s have to have grub updated to show the restored distribution.
Does not boot to grub menu - drops the user to a tty grub prompt. Computer has to be rebooted and short boot order and advanced recovery option used to replace another distro, then update-grub to follow to access restored distro.
