Dear Mr. Miller,
Would a "replica/pull -v /dist/replica/network" result in the same

Thanks,

There is no installer, so the installer defaults are here irrelevant.
For the Pi, a ready-to-boot SD image is provided.

Hi Steve,
how often do you snapshot? How large is the SD?
I used a 32G SD with hourly snapshots, terminal server.
I would sort of rule out the SD reliability.

If I correctly understand, you would like functionality similar to

implement.
