So long as the snapshot does not include any user data. Maybe only on /usr? /home must not rollback or /var which can have dbs with user data. Rolling back /etc is an interest situation to ponder. Maybe if a diff of changes can be generated before the rollback so that system change can be applied again, slowly. > > Do you think a snapshot+rollback mechanism would be more or less useful than a graphical rescue environment, for troubleshooting system problems? I built a fedora install on a USB ssd. It took some thinking about to figure out the dance to do that. It would be like to be able to do that install from fedora, rather the. Boot live cd and install to USB device.
