+ | ====== PLD RescueCD ====== | ||
+ | [[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 rescue CD hints ====== | + | 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. |
