Recommendations for a Linux system backup tool
(lemmy.world)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

As long as you don't reboot, your live sessions act like a fully installed OS. At least with any of the LiveUSB sessions I've ever used over the last decade.
You can install, mount a backup image, then push it on to a mountpoint for your actual install to be restored.
