SystemRescueCD
Yet another recovery OS has been updated this month. SystemRescueCD 1.5.8 is a minor update (the 2nd release in 3 weeks) to provide new standard kernels (2.6.32.16), alternative kernels (2.6.34.1) and a new version of the gparted package.
Although I’m not a big fun of it (I prefer RipLinux) I wanted to give it a try, as I’d heard a lot of positive things about this OS.
Being a recovery OS, SystemRescueCD comes with lots of boot entries, as well as numerous boot options. The options list is impressive — if you can read it (the color scheme with the blue/cyan background and the grey/yellow font is not the happiest combination). The developers even included an “out of the box” PXE boot server (which must be manually started after login) that can be used by other computers on the network to boot SystemRescueCD and use it for troubleshooting.
