Unless you're doing something related to a hardware driver, is there a reason you don't do 95% of your work in qemu-kvm or virtualbox? > Otherwise i would use Clonezilla. For anything that can break your system, and for running unstable, btrfs is awesome. You can make snapshots at any point (most people have at least a daily cronjob), and then restore or mount live when you want. And when you make it unbootable, you append subvol=backups/@2016-08-12 (or whatever you named it) in grub, and there you go. -- An imaginary friend squared is a real enemy. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
