      Is iso-snapshot working correctly on antiX-22/21 with all the latest updates?
      Either from installed or running live/frugal.
      Thanks

        I don’t suppose this counts, but I installed iso-snapshot-cli-antix on an antiX core 22 installation. It worked perfectly. (I’m using its output right now as a frugal install.)

        confirmed antiX frugaler, since 2019

          If I have the antiX kernels, the isosnapshot works. If I use the 6.0 liquorix kernels, the isosnapshot produces an isosnapshot file. But after using liveusb maker, the isosnapshot is not bootable.

          I had reported it here:

            This is a known issue and will be fixed very soon/
            I might need you you to be a guinea-pig if you don’t mind.

              Just tested iso-snapshot from antiX-21 base frugal, antix 5.10 kernel, and the resulting iso’s live-usb works perfectly.

                Thanks.
                Can you test these new packages from here:

                https://download.tuxfamily.org/antix/Testing/

                Try default antiX kernels and/or liquorix 6 series

                  It works with the 6 liquorix kernels !!
                  This is one happy antiX user. Thank you.

                  I am running live on antiX22 full with the 6 liquorix kernel.

                    I was able to use the testing .deb versions of the 3 files you provided, upgrade to a liquorix kernel, and make a snapshot and subsequent live-usb with that iso running the liquorix kernel (5.11 series). So the new iso-snapshot works.
                    But I was not able to use the 6.0 series. I got this error on both antiX 21 & 22, via cli-aptiX (this error is from apt/cli-aptiX). Fully upgraded:

                      Testing it using an antiX kernel (latest 5.10) works perfectly, as well.

                        @anticapitalista, I’ve been using iso-snapshot on my antix-22-runit dwm spin using the antix 4.9 and 5.10 kernels without issue.

                        If you need another to test, I am late, let me know what to test.
