   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
