SystemRescueCd is a Linux system available from a bootable CDROM
that provides an easy way to perform administrative tasks on your
computer, such as creating and editing the partitions of the hard disk
or backing up data. It contains a lot of system utilities (such as
parted, partimage, and fstools), and basic programs (such as editors,
midnight commander, and network tools). It also includes GParted, a
Partition Magic clone that makes editing partitions easy with its
graphical user interface. This CDROM aims to be very easy to use and
accessible to everybody, and it also provides advanced personalization
features.

Changes:
The kernels were updated to Linux-2.6.23.14 (as
the default) and 2.6.22.16 (as the alternative
kernel) with Reiser4. The kernel was patched with
a fix for the sis190 network driver. The build
files were updated to catalyst-2.0.5 and
genkernel-3.4.9. gparted was patched to prevent a
crash. The iproute2 package was fixed (/sbin/ip
was not installed) and the lvm2 initscript was
broken. Two boot options (dodebug and lowmem) were
added. Proprietary ATI and nVidia drivers were
added for XOrg. ksh and tcsh shells, pbzip2-1.0.2
(Parallel bzip2), lzma-utils-4.32.2, and
mount-cifs were added.
