Hello, with a program like PowerIso 6.0 Giveaway

You need to specify the boot file

You need to find or install a Windows PC for Windows programs.

I'm not aware of an equivalent to PowerISO for Ubuntu, sorry.

Otherwise, PowerISO itself: https://www.poweriso.com/download-poweriso-for-linux.htm

It may be limited if you don't pay.

Hello,

On Linux, you can follow this tutorial to create an iso, so there's no need for Windows. If you're using KDE, I recommend using k3b instead of brasero.

However, I must point out a gap in the approach. A Linux system is often much larger than a CD or even a DVD. So it is unlikely that you will be able to burn it.

In practice, we don't actually need to save the Linux system, which can be easily reinstalled, provided you remember the list of installed packages (see this tutorial). It's actually your data (stored in /home) that matters. When reinstalling Linux, you can easily keep /home and only reinstall the system (/). You just need to make sure to reuse the /home partition without formatting it.

On the other hand, a hardware incident (hard drive failure) is always possible. Therefore, you should back up the files you care about (even if it's to back up the entire /home) to a separate drive. Provided that this volume is reasonable, it can fit on a CD or DVD. But in my opinion, a more practical and less cumbersome solution is to simply use an external drive. Additionally, you can periodically update this backup with a tool like rsync or grsync.

Good luck

Hello I have reinstalled everything so yes it's resolved
