Usage
Using the Application
Always, always back up your boot loader config file before using this alpha release. A few days back, I lost (blanked it out) my main GRUb4DOS configuration file (menu.lst) due to a bug. The error is now fixed but still, just make a back up copy.

Please do not replace the bundled mkisofs.exe yet. Although it is possible, there are a few gothchas and should there be an error, it would be hard to track down if you replace the bundeled version. For now, for testing purposes please use the one included and then I will give clear instructions how to replace mkisofs.exe with you rown version and what you need to do.

Known Issues
Please understand that this is an alpha release and although while testing this latest version, I did not find any errors, no software is error free. If you find something wrong, chances are it was not done intentionally.

Hi there,

I would like to introduce you to something that I have been working on for quite some time. I call this the "Ultimate Rescue CD". I originally intended to keep this private for my own use but some of my friends wanted me to release the ISO. What's your opinion on this?

The background story: Why I created this? We already have a few boot CDs but none of them (in my own opinion) are really complete. So I decided to invest more time into linux and create my own boot CD with all the tools I will ever need. Have a look at the screenshots.

Will you be interested in having something like this and will you intend to test it? This is a critical decision as I am trying to find out whether people are interested or not. I am a bit reluctant to release it due to its size but if interest is shown I will go ahead with it. I am asking because the ISO is 595MB and uploading 595MB on my server might take some time. If this project goes ahead, I will need some servers to host the ISO. The project is consisted of open source software.
