My arrangement is not that simple.

My system is installed on a 1TB nvMe.
But all my data is on a separate partition on a 2TB hard drive
-> /home/Data The backup only has two partitions: Data and Mythtv so
just rsyncing from /dev/sda to /dev/sdb won't do it.

Anyway, running Antix looks like a temporary solution.
I hope I can organise persistence so that I can save a script toi the flash drive.

Regards,  Alan
