Still on #GhostBSD and enjoying it! But as a #Linux guy until only last week, I've got a lot to learn. One thing I totally don't understand is #BSD's "snapshot" system. I was hoping to be able to write a snapshot to a bootable USB stick (as an ISO file) now that I've pretty much got all the little bugaboos taken care of and am left with an awesome desktop BSD OS.

I need to do that with pclos-debian. At the moment, I'm balking at updating this desktop.

@ℝ𝕠𝕓𝕚𝕟: Snapshots on ZFS (presumably what you mean) are somewhat of an advanced topic. Cool stuff to get into, but perhaps not as a start to learn your new OS. ;-) Take your time...and step by step.

In MX-Linux you could create a copy of your existing OS in a few clicks, and store it on a bootable USB stick. Really nice feature. In Linux Lite I used Systemback, which was easier and better than Timeshift, so naturally it's not around anymore and everyone uses Timeshift now.
