I have a certain approach to my installs:
- On my live USB stick I also keep an updated copy of latest cherrytree.deb and my most recent install.ctb file, the cherrytree data file with all my notes.
- I did have systemback on the stick, but that is now already in LL
- I do my install, do the absolute minimum config, then use systemback to create restore point.
- Then install cherrytree, and open my install.ctb with all my notes.
- I then proceed with all my set-up config and tweaks/changes
>> Networking, Binding separate data partition folders to /home/folders etc... (no extra software installed yet, apart from cherrytree)
- I then use systemback to create another restore point. (I now have 2 restore points to recover from)
- I then take a "belt and braces approach", and image the disk.
- Finally I start adding the programs I use.
Going forward, depending on what I have been doing.?
I periodically create restore points, and the odd complete disk image.
It works for me
