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.

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. > > > > I just try SUN Solaris boot disk and BeOS boot disk (by Isolinux and > > > memdisk)and both fail ~_~ may be I need to start from their bootable > > > CD first. > > > (I got those boot disk at http://www.bootdisk.com/ and > > > http://www.polarhome.com/service/bootdisk/?lang=en) > > > > For a MacOS 9.1 CD see > > http://www.angelfire.com/super/infopages/html/toast501rescuecd.html > > For MacOS X there is a free project to do such bootable CD, I don't > > remember its URL now. > > Thanks a lot and happy new year ^_^ > > Regds > LAM Chi-fung > > > > ============================================================ > Boot Scriptor mailing list -- http://www.bootscriptor.org > Change your subscription options at: //www.freelists.org/list/bscript > > ============================================================ Boot Scriptor mailing list -- http://www.bootscriptor.org Change your subscription options at: //www.freelists.org/list/bscript
