grub-mkconfig terminates at "Detecting snapshots..." #338

I've installed grub-btrfs and timeshift. On a fresh install when I'm chroot in the live environment of arch linux, whenever I do grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg it seems to crash or terminate building the grub.cfg file. The only way i was able to make the config file was to disable grub-btrfs in /etc/default/grub-btrfs/config. I've gone ahead and just left it disabled so I can boot into the system and try to fix it from there. I've tried everything, I've searched through old issues and google and I can't find anything. I using LVM and I formatted the root logical volume with BTRFS and then made 3 BTRFS subvolumes from that, @, @home, and @.snapshots. Idk if this matters but I'm booting in BIOS mode. BIOS/GPT layout because my system does not support UEFI.

[User@Arch ~]$ sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

I'm very sad :c

I've tried messing with the config and manually creating a snapshot to see if that will fix it but at this moment I'm getting close to not knowing what I'm doing so I'm asking for help.
