Hey folks - So what happened to the RescueCD ISO?... i'm not finding it under the ...centos/4.4/isos/ dir, as i believe it generally has been previously. At my office, we have a local mirror, and i've always just burned the RescueCD ISO and booted with that. At the prompt i supply "linux askmethod" and then later reference our local mirror to do an install or upgrade. The RescueCD is (or was) particularly convenient, because it's small & quick to download & burn. Is there a simple alternative that i'm overlooking? Thanks *----->

CD-1 (or the ServerCD, or the DVD) has a rescue mode when booting ... you get to it with the command: linux rescue -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
