>From personal experience I gotta tell you "RedHat rescue disks STINK to
hell and back". They put some fuc*&%^% trickery into their rescue disks
that makes them more trouble than their worth; for example you have to
create approperiate devices under /dev before you can even mount your hard
disks..... I don't know about you, but in an emergency I seem no to
remember what major and minor numbers partition 7 on my 3rd SCSI hard disk
has....
I have been using RedHat since 3.0.3, and I have NEVER seen a RedHat
distribution with rescue disks that work..... I always download Slackware
rescue disks, they have NEVER failed me. For everything else I use RedHat.
cheers,
