I made a live to test new nvidia proprietary drivers, but this is useful to other purposes too.
Decompress and use dd to write the image to a (min 16GB) usb stick, and boot, no UEFI used.
The image has 2 partitions.
The first (labeled LIVE64) is FAT32, and it stores the base system.
The second one (labeled SNAPS) is an ext4 partitions, and it is used to hold system modification, so you can actually customize it, install new packages and so on.

For my purpose, nouveau is disabled by default right in the bootloader entry.

The system autologins in text mode, type startx to start an lxde desktop.
Only root account is present, the root password is 12345.
