Is there a trick I don't see here ? Because if the backup of those
directories
is enough for a full restoration of a system state, this method is far more
efficient than the others, isn't it ? As one does not need to reboot and
just have
to make a script or/and a cron job to make his own snapshot.

Thank you,
