DistroClone Backup & Restore Incremental rootfs backup and restore
DistroClone Backup & Restore
In the development of SysLinuxOS, one recurring need was a reliable way to snapshot and restore a system quickly — not just for users, but also during testing and ISO development.
That is how DistroClone Backup & Restore was born: a graphical, incremental backup tool designed specifically for Debian-based systems.
It is the companion utility to DistroClone Live ISO Builder, and both tools will ship together as part of the SysLinuxOS toolchain in upcoming releases. They are designed to work independently, but their real strength emerges when used together — something I will cover in a future article.
What DistroClone Backup Does
DistroClone Backup & Restore is a GTK/YAD-based graphical frontend that creates and manages backups of the system root filesystem (rootfs) across Debian-based distributions such as:
Debian
Ubuntu
Linux Mint / LMDE
Elementary OS
Zorin OS
