Thank you for your response djemos

I will follow your advice and do a frugal installation with persistent file.

Many thanks...

Please excuse me if this question is in the wrong place.

I have a spare SSD in an external usb3 enclosure, which I normally just use for fast backups. Can anyone tell me if it's possible to install Slackel KDE onto this external drive, using SlackelLive from a usb datastick?

Many thanks...
