Is there a way to add a backup restore method to, for example, the fedora net install. That might be what I need.
In my use case that is would not be useful as one of my fedora machines is my router.If it breaks then i have no network to netinstall from!
I find that the ssd method is robust , allows me add scripts to help with specific machines and works with all my fedora machines.
A take it that setting up an ssd as a rescue device does not appeal.

I created a fedora rescue usb ssd that i install any software i need to maintain my machines.
That removes the limitation of what is installled on the live media.
I use duplicity for backup and restore.
