"The most overfeatured rescue disk ever created"
"Bloatware at its finest"
Requirements:
i386 PC system
24 MB RAM
Bootable CD-ROM (IDE or PCI SCSI recommended)
80-minute CD-R blank
SuperRescue is a single very large bootable system-on-a-disk. It's
based on the observation that the vast majority of systems allow you
to do so much more than the minimal system. Therefore, it isn't for
everything, but for most desktop systems, it provides a much nicer
rescue environment than your average rescue floppy. This version
furthermore uses transparent compression to fit about 1.7 GB of
software onto a single CD in usable form.
NOTE: Version numbers differing only in a final letter (e.g. 1.2.1a
versus 1.2.1) matter only if you intend to make your own modified
versions of SuperRescue using the included build scripts; such version
increments do not matter if you use the disk as-is.
SuperRescue 2.1.1 is based on a subset of RedHat 7.2. The initrd is
based on binaries from RedHat 6.2. The source code for the binaries
on the system are available from Red Hat Software or your favourite
RedHat mirrors:
