I'm a bit tired. Flushed an ISO to sda. My laptop now asks if I want to use try or uninstall xubuntu on boot. Before slowly seeing my complete gui disappearing and had by luck still a terminal open - I could save ssh keys. Dammit. Was switching laptop anyway.

Dammit! I can't believe I did that.

    @Demolishun don't forget to do --preserve-root parameter to make it actually work so people don't think you're a noob. I did it once on my last workday. Also disappearing gui, same effect.

    Installing target same as source was possible btw, but the setup crashed not doing damage. Boring
