Hi,

I use a dos boot disk that has fdisk, format, mem, scandisk, and a 
text editor. I would be very interested in a linux disk with the same 
type of functionality. Maybe even additional diagnostics or at least 
hardware reporting.

This is an ideal companion to any rule install. Use this disk to boot 
and check basic system functionality. Then install rule.

Is it possible to boot from a floppy and then mount a cd reader? This 
would be good if the cd reader didn't boot. I do think a utility boot 
disk needs to be rolled into rule.

Is there anything I could do to help? Do you plan on posting a disk 
img of this disk? 

Thanks,

Hairy Larry
