Suggestions for rescue CD

[Sherwood Botsford]

***
On more occasions than not, grub has not installed correctly. I 
have had to boot the rescue CD. The rescue CD does not set any 
value for "MANPATH" which means that until you do so manually, 
you cannot read the man pages.  This is a nuisance.


I could see some merit in having the rescue CD boot a live 
system. Even with a twm environment, reading "info grub" in one 
window while running "vi /etc/grub.conf" in another would be very 
convenient.

Because X is not always practical, one of the dialogs for the 
rescue disk should be:  Set up in terminal mode, or live CD mode.
