    Thank you for sharing your insights on using USB. It’s a relevant topic.
    When I modified the Xfce4 base respin from @caliumsodium for my needs, and then
    burned the finished system snapshot to USB, I was not constantly present at the PC. The USB burning
    got stuck in a loop (Warteschleife bei MD5 Prüfung) and destroyed my USB (fortunately, I
    successfully returned it).

    After my experience, I decided to use only the old, replaceable USB (of course,
    it could be a fault in it), and I tried twice to burn it with the ‘Init
    diversity 25.1a’ snapshot, but it didn’t work at all. I only succeeded the first time when I formatted the USB stick. The second time, I decided to give up.

    Thank you also for your comment on my post for those interested in installing the Xfce4 desktop.

    One thing I noticed, which you may already know. When I installed antiX
    25.a1, Testing, runit full, I couldn’t change the symbols and their names in this higher version.
    Only after I uninstalled ‘Desktop 23’ did it work. → No surprise there!!
    However, this also happened to me in the antiX 23 version. → I don’t care at all, I have no
    problems with it. Just information, because you are involved in this matter in your private life for other people.

    Greetings!!
