Dear JAMFnation Team Members,

how can I install an MBP with Apple-native SSD Drive, but without getting APFS applied, while being connected via Internet Recovery?

Is there a Terminal Syntax I can run?

Or what other Installation Methods are there, that prevent the SSID to be converted to APFS,
during the Install over the Internet or from a Diskmaker x7 USB Stick?

Thanks in advance

Leo

Could the snapshot capability of tmutil be used on an APFS volume to deliver the one core feature as Deep Freeze -- system state rollback? In other words, is there a way to restore the system to a previous snapshot state with a script that runs on the next reboot or startup?
