 +====== PLD Rescue ======
 +
 +===== PLD New Rescue (pldnr) - CURRENT =====
 +
 +<note tip>
 +18th November 2013: Jacek Konieczny (jajcus) [[http://​lists.pld-linux.org/​mailman/​pipermail/​pld-devel-en/​2013-November/​023720.html|announced]] availability of new [[https://​github.com/​Jajcus/​pld-new-rescue|PLD Rescue CD project]].
 +
 +See its [[https://​github.com/​Jajcus/​pld-new-rescue/​releases|releases]] page to obtain ''​.iso''​ images.
 +</​note>​
 +
 +===== PLD RescueCD (rcd) - OBSOLETE =====
 +
 +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.
 +
 +Current stable release:
 +  * PLD RescueCD released on 12-Feb-2011
 +  * Download:
 +    * [[http://​rescuecd.pld-linux.org/​download/​2011-02-12/​x86_64/​|x86_64]]
 +    * [[http://​rescuecd.pld-linux.org/​download/​2011-02-12/​x86/​|x86]]
 +    * [[http://​rescuecd.pld-linux.org/​download/​2011-02-12/​x86_and_x86_64/​|x86 & x86_64]]
 +
 +Currnet beta release:
 +  * 2013-03-12: kernel 3.8.2, rpm 5.4.10 with db5.2
 +  * [[http://​rescuecd.pld-linux.org/​beta/​|Download]]:​
 +
 +==== 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. ​
