SystemRescueCd 1.0.3-beta9 (Development branch) |
|
|
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.
