Hello good night, I would like to know how I can create a custom stage with some graphic interface, e.g.: gnome or plasma. Install the programs I want and create a stage without modifying it, a clean system.

Do you mean by "clean stage" that you want a backup or snapshot of your system at that point? If yes, you could use a backup program or use tar. I use tar to make a weekly snapshot of all my system directories, which is separate from the nightly backups of my personal files.

The system backup looks like this and used 3.7 GB and does not include personal files or any "temporary" files that don't need to be backed up.
Code:
$ ls -l /mnt/backup0/sysbak3
total 3817712
