I needed a rescue CD the other day and the best I had to hand was a 
Fedora Core rescue CD. As I had to resuce a RHL system that seemed 
somwhat approbriate, but it transpired it couldn't recscue either the 
RHL system on hdb or Debian on hda (where the real problem was).

Finally I resorted to grub on a floppy.

grub on the CD would be tee riffic!! If it's bootable, I can boot 
anything with Grub.
