Of course this won't work with my new box: SATA drives, LVM on raid1,

I'm looking for debian-based since I know how it works e.g. setting up
networking, raid and lvm stuff, etc. It'll only take 9 nights to get
Knoppix so I'll do that and perhaps later make a USB-based rescue set up
like I had for woody-floppy (with 4GB instead of 1.44 MB to play with).
Have you had a look at http://debian-live.alioth.debian.org/ ? You might find
that interesting.
I'll dl it and check it out. I note, however, that the most recent is
made from Etch in October. I'll also check out the live-package, and
search for others.
Thanks,
Doug.
You could try RIPLinux. It's not Debian based that I know of, but it's
a small download, 72 megs even with X support, and has a plethora of
recovery type tools, a combination of both gui and text.
I have found it useful quite a few times.
