+ | ===== PLD RescueCD (rcd) ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | This is older RescueCD project, may not work in new environments. | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[http://rescuecd.pld-linux.org/|PLD RescueCD]] is a bootable disk that contains a live Linux distribution based on PLD Linux (2.6.37 modular kernel) made in Poland. Furthermore this version uses transparent compression (squashfs) to fit about 180 MB of software onto a single mini CD in usable form. | ||
+ | |||
+ | PLD RescueCD can be used to rescue ailing machines, perform intrusion post-mortems, act as a temporary secure linux-based workstation (using ssh, vpn connecting to remote host - other networking clients are also supported), install PLD Linux, and perform many other tasks that we haven't yet imagined. It provides a much nicer rescue environment than your average rescue floppy. | ||

+ | ==== Problems/Solutions ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | === No block devices available === | ||
+ | Rescue cd should find and load proper modules for block devices but sometimes it fails. You can try default "ahci" (or any other driver you know should work) and later | ||
+ | |||
+ | <file> | ||
+ | modprobe sd_mod | ||
+ | </file> | ||
+ | to get load ''/dev/sd*'' devices. | ||
