Yes. The snapshot tool and the installer have been tried on wheezy a few times, and they worked. I can't recall any problems or potential problems with it. I even made a snapshot of an install that included systemd along with sysV, and that works.

If you try it and run into problems, please let me know.

One minor problem using refractasnapshot on wheezy/sid -

edit /etc/refractasnapshot.conf and change
Code: Select all
work_dir="/tmp/work"
to something outside of /tmp (using /home/work is ok) because wheezy mount /tmp on tmpfs, and it's not big enough to hold a copy of the system plus a squashfs of that copy.
