Snapshot Creation Using MX Linux

 I am new to snapshots, simply because my Debian System has never failed me and I have never lost a file inside NUC mini computer. 

But I tend to lose files or items stored in other places, say in a cupboard or a box.

As a process of learning, I did prepare  two snapshots.

1. One as a backup in a NTFS partition, size of which was 4.2GB

I added Box utility, Palemoon, Vivaldi and Opera as new software and hence 400MB bigger.

2. The other as a portable functioning distribution on a USB stick (or on a SATA disk) of 3,8GB.

This method is much better than making a persistent vilume on a USB sticu which generally is volatile and unreliable.

Only Easy OS does it correctly.
