[newbie] Rescue disks

[Jack Gillis]

I have made the boot diskette for 7.2.  Now I wonder if there is any way to
create a 'Rescue' diskette of procedure that will allow me to work on the
'real' Mandrake partitions?  Other distributions have this feature.  At least
SuSe and Red Hat.  Perhaps others.

Thank you for you help on this or disaster recovery under Mandrake in
general.

Look at  http://www.toms.net/rb/home.html

Its very popular, a nice piece of work. You can boot from the floppy,
then mount your hard drives under it for maintanance or repair.
