About SystemRescueCd
Description: SystemRescueCd is a Linux system rescue disk available as a bootable CD-ROM or USB stick for administrating or repairing your system and data after a crash. It aims to provide an easy way to carry out admin tasks on your computer, such as creating and editing the hard disk partitions. It comes with a lot of linux software such as system tools (parted, partimage, fstools, ...) and basic tools (editors, midnight commander, network tools). It requires no installation. It can be used on linux servers, linux desktops or windows boxes. The kernel supports the important file systems (ext2/ext3/ext4, reiserfs, reiser4, btrfs, xfs, jfs, vfat, ntfs, iso9660), as well as network filesystems (samba and nfs).

Advanced uses
SystemRescueCd is available for blind people. Now, the linux speakup screen reader is working well, and the speakup keymap is installed. This feature was tested by Gregory Nowak. Please note that you need SystemRescueCd-1.1.0 or later. Notes specific to using speakup in SystemRescueCD are available on the speakup info page.
It is possible to make customized versions of the CD. For example, you can add your own scripts, to make an automatic restoration of the system. It's also possible to burn a customized DVD, with SystemRescueCd and 4.2 GB for your data (backup for example). Read the manual for more details. There is a new manual chapter that explains How you can burn a DVD+RW from SystemRescueCd
You can use SystemRescueCd to backup data from an unbootable Windows computer, if you want to backup the data stored on a Windows computer that cannot boot any more.
It is very easy to install SystemRescueCd on a USB stick. That's very useful in case you can't boot from the CD drive. You just have to copy several files to the stick and run syslinux. The install process can be done from Linux or Windows. Follow instructions from the Manual for more details.

New installers to run SystemRescueCd from a USB stick
It has been possible to install SystemRescueCd on a USB stick for a long time. There are several reasons for doing that:
- You can boot SystemRescueCd on a computer which has no CD/DVD drive
- It’s easy to fit a USB stick in your pocket to have it with you all the times
- You can write your own files on the USB stick at any time
- You can create a backstore to preserve your modifications
Unfortunately the installation was not always easy, especially if you want to install it from Windows or if you have old versions of the utilities required for the installation. You either had to boot on the CDRom edition to run an automatic installation program (sysresccd-usbstick) or you had to follow manual instructions if you did not want to burn the ISO image on a media.
SystemRescueCd-1.5.5 comes with new installers for Linux and Windows that make it easy to install SystemRescueCd on a removable device. In other words it will be possible to just download the ISO image and run the installer. They come with up to date copies of the programs required during the installation so that it works even on system where recent versions of these tools are not installed.
If you are running Linux on your computer, you just have to execute the script called “usb_inst.sh” which is stored at the root of the cdrom ISO image. So can simply mount the iso image using “mount -o loop systemrescuecd-x86-x.y.z.iso /mnt/cdrom” (where /mnt/cdrom can be replaced with any empty directory of your system where you want to mount the cdrom image) and then you run “usb_inst.sh” from the mount directory. This script is a modified version of “sysresccd-usbstick” so it can be used with the same options on the command line. By default it runs in the semi-graphical mode where you just have to select the removable device you want to use.
If you are using Windows you will have to download the cdrom ISO image and the installation program. And then you just have to execute the installer and select the ISO image and the USB device you want to use for the installation. The installer can be executed directly from the download directory, there is no need to install files on your hard-disk. This installer has been developed to use the Win32 API directly to produce a very compact program that does not require any external library to run. You have to run the installer as administrator, it’s required to install the bootloader on the removable device. If you run it as a normal user you may have to type an administrator login/password in a dialog box at the end of the installation.
For more details please read the official documentation about installing SystemRescueCd on a USB stick.
