      Use a kernel version that still has support to perform the copy before upgrading? If already upgraded, boot to the old kernel? Boot from a live iso that has support?

      I mean, this isn’t exactly a hard problem to solve…

          The 6.10 kernel has not even been released yet. Support has not been removed yet. It does not have to be an “old” Slackware CD.
