Ultimate Boot CD
http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/
In my opinion this CD ISO (burnable image) you can download has
just about every tool you will need to manage a computer.

Use the Ultimate Boot CD if you want to:

Run floppy-based diagnostic tools from CDROM drives. More and more PCs are 
shipped without floppy drives these days, and it is such a royal pain when you 
need to run diagnostic tools on them.

Free yourself from the slow loading speed of the floppy drive. Even if you do 
have a floppy drive, it is still much much faster to run your diagnostic tools 
from the CDROM drive, rather than wait for the tool to load from the floppy 
drive.

Consolidate as many diagnostic tools as possible into one bootable CD. Wouldn't 
you like to avoid digging into the dusty box to look for the right floppy disk, 
but simply run them all from a single CD? Then the Ultimate Boot CD is for you!

When you boot up from the CD, a text-based menu will be displayed, and you will 
be able to select the tool you want to run. The selected tool actually boots 
off a virtual floppy disk created in memory.


Tools currently included in the Ultimate Boot CD are:


Ultimate Boot CD (Basic)

The basic version contains updated versions of all tools found in previous 
releases and even adds a few more. This version does not contain the Linux boot 
environment INSERT.

Ultimate Boot CD (Full)

The full version contains all the tools found in the basic version but also 
adds the INSERT environment, a Linux distribution based on Knoppix. INSERT 
contains many utilities for the Linux user, such as the ability to mount most 
filesystems (including NTFS(rw) via Captive), ssh and sshfs which allows you to 
mount a filesystem over ssh, Samba client and server, IDS and testing tools 
such as Nessus and Snort, Rdesktop to remote control Windows servers, VNC, 
Qtparted for re-partitioning, iptables, and Monkey webserver are just a few of 
the tools found on the UBCD version of INSERT. In addition, UBCD Insert also 
supports modules which can be found at SourceForge that contain several more 
tools.



Please see UBCD Insert documentation before burning this ISO since it contains 
information on modules and customization you may find useful.
