Hello purists,
I have been struggling to find a decent solution for effective backup of my system so as to be able to reinstall from backup device.
I have looked at rsync based solutions (eg Timeshift) which have not been very easy to use when trying to restore my system.
I have 1 crash so far which I had to re-install from and simply had to re-install from a live-CD which is straighforward.
Hence, my approach now is to try to build a custom ISO from my current installation and then build a live-CD from the ISO as a backup solution.
I came across respin, a fork of resmartsys for Debian installations, however it is dependent on sysvinit. PureOS uses systemd and as a result I am unable to install it.
I have been searching alternative solutions and come across 2 that are being maintained,
is anyone using this kind of approach for backup solutions? If so what tools are you using?
