grml, the No-Frills Linux Rescue CD--USB (Linux Planet)

Linux Planet takes a look at grml. "You don't lack for options with grml. The boot menu not only offers the standard options to get into grml, but a FreeDOS option, a minimal BSD (MirOS bsd4grml), PXE boot, hardware detection tool, and Memtest. You also can choose to load grml entirely into RAM in case you need the CD-ROM for something, and it's faster. You can use it on a USB stick instead of a CD. There are several failsafe options if you have trouble booting grml due to incompatible hardware. In short - you have options." (LWN looked at grml back in April 2006.)
