I have a strange issue. I had some apps that I had loaded without a package manager and put them in the /opt folder. I did this on 2 machines. I created .desktop files and everything worked good. I used all day long and shut down pc. Next day I power it up and all my apps I loaded this way were not in my app list (Im using GNOME on Opensuse Tumbleweed). I could not figure out what was going on, the desktop files were still there but no icons.
I went to my /opt folder and there are no files at all. the /opt folder is there though, just empty.
If I restart my PC everything will work again. I basically have been working around this by booting my pc twice for apps to work.
I would like to find out why this is happening so I can fix it on both machines before I load too many more applications. I have reloaded both machines from scratch in attempt to fix and it happened again - so it must be some kind of update that is breaking it - I need some help troubleshooting this one.
I did see this in debugfs (this error is here even when my /opt folder does show files so may not be related):
debugfs: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sda1
/dev/sda1 contains a btrfs file system
And here is my fstab output:
