I wish to be able to back up a server or workstation. I want to create a bootable USB stick that requires no user input, but will remember settings in a profile. On bootup, it will backup the hard drive of a computer to an SMB share.
Should I create this as a version of Clonezilla or use something that Clonezilla used as a base. Any other advice appreciated.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:

You can preseed the command in the boot parameters. Please check these docs:
