I don't know, I'm not a Linux expert, after all.

I need primary to recover Windows (it's the de-facto OS in everywhere, it is 
also the most likely to be corrupted), but having the ability to recover Linux 
is also a good idea.
So I need a rescue distro that can help in fixing Linux problems, and have 
read/write access to FAT32 and NTFS partitions.

No, it do work, but I need to further enhance it to suit my project.
The Win2K Password reset disk asks a lot of questions, and I like to automate 
most of them, so that the user only select's which Windows installation to use 
then select the wanted User.
