 +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.
