I am currently using EndeavourOS for my laptop. Is there a backup solution that is easy to use, and can be run from the EndeavourOS install media without internet? (RSync is included, but no other backup tools are included, to my knowledge.) I don’t want to use another ISO due to space constraints on my USB.

    Sounds like a well thought out solution, but we need proper programs which can handle backups, like some mentioned in this thread.

      Oh, I totally agree my solution is not “proper” - it’s a homebrewn solution, full of duct tape and shoestrings. That said, it does everything I need to do. Which features of “proper programs” would you be missing? Perhaps I could add them for my own use.

        Its not about features, its about “duct tape scripts” are rarely a solution for anybody else than the author, imo. Borgbackup seems like the proper suggestion here for the OP.
