@fsmithred: I, myself, never install refractasnapshot-gui or refractainstaller-gui. they are in my installations only if in the complete set of the installation (refracta linux etc.). but I like command line activity! it is so clear...

puppy linux did initially be "snapshoted" with only a few step command line Iso lang Puppy linux did only use one squashed big file. it was usual for certain (not only I) to do that frequently. It was also possible in some other little distributions.

actually one approach can be that one: https://arpinux.developpez.com/construi … ve-debian/

Than very much for your intense activity at this field dear fsmithred! You did save a lot of time of your users and make that really accessible for all (Exton is right explaining: can do a child!).

@stargate-sg1-cheyen: I suppose we did speak about the same (see the titel of the page pointed by your 1st link ( an Experimental Linux) It is what I did say in my last message.

I am not happy with EasyOS: no 32 bit version any more and heavy, heavy!

@oui(and for future readers of this thread), EasyOS is _not_ whatever "easy linux" you might be referencing(for the record)

Can anybody remember how it was problematic to make a snapshot out the Commando Line Interpreter?

I'm not sure what you are asking. Do you want to run refractasnapshot without a graphical environment? If so, the answer is yes, just run "refractasnapshot" as root (or with sudo).

If you're asking if it's possible to make a snapshot by manually running commands, then yes, that's how it was done before the script was written. Some of the commands are long, and that is why the script was written.

Ah. So the poison comes not from other folks. Oh dear.

@golinux:
Your comment is out of order. My remark carries zero disrespect, zero condescension & zero antagonism towards oui. The man is not a native English-speaker & I'm attempting a slight nudge to assist him in realising a linguistic error. I'm trying to help.

I'm sorry that your mind has been poisoned by other folks in these fora. I'm innocent of their claims.

easy linux was named with an other name in the past... the branch is very old and is only an experimentation's field von BK since BK does not continue to consider himself as the chief (and responsible) of Puppy Linux editions of Puppy linux or of authors from the high quantity of derivatives...

Not quite on topic.
I used Slax for a while and even installed it on my hard drive.
When working with USB, it saves all changes made during the session and no snapshots or reassemblies are needed.

When Slax is started from a read-only media such as CD/DVD, it keeps all system modifications in memory only, and all the modifications are lost when you reboot. On the other hand, if you run Slax from a writable device such as USB Flash Drive, it can store all changes there, so all your configurations and modifications are restored next time you boot, even if it is on a different computer. This feature is known as Persistent Changes and you can read more about it in a separate chapter.

Still beating that drum, alexkemp? Time to move on . . .

It is "Command-Line Interpreter".

'Commando' is also a word in English, and completely different to your intention.

I find, that the refractasnapshot is really a fantastic evolution! I don't know if other people appreciate really with progress it is for us! I participate to the movement "Puppy linux" since early 2004. At the begin, it was not possible to save somewhat, nothing excepted on the email server from MS with hotmail! And then, step after step came save and rebuilt possibilities. And it was relatively complicate and so full of errors. It was possible at Puppy linux (in few steps and later with a GUI) but also at SliTaz (with an extravagant excursion deep in the system try... but SliTaz did have other ways to reorganize and save). After that, USB did become common and did change and make those transaction also common and necessary! Today only a few minutes thank Refractasnapshot! Thank you very much to the refracta developer/s!
