[Bug 1968150] Re: [FFe] Remove zsys from installer

Two weeks ago I had to install the NVidia GPU driver to disable the
Optimus NVidia GPU to save power on my laptop. After the installation of
the NVidia driver (Ubuntu Desktop 21.10 amd64) X didn't work anymore.
Ubuntu booted into the emergency/rescue system at any reboot.

Zsys saved my day by just reverting back to a snapshot before the NVidia
driver installation.

I highly suggest to make Zsys stable to improve data integrity on Ubuntu installations.
I hope I cant get Zsys working on the 22.04 installation this week.
