Introduction

Of course, the most important feature of SystemRescueCd is the Linux system that is run from the CDRom, and that allows to do many administration tasks. Since version 0.2.9, SystemRescueCd allows to work from virtual bootable floppy disks. These virtual floppies offers the same feature you could have with a physical floppy disk you boot on when you start your computer. For example, several users need system DOS programs. They start from a DOS floppy disk, and they can run these tools. SystemRescueCd comes with several system floppy disks. The floppy list appears when you press F2 in the very first prompt. This page shows many option on the top, and floppy disks images at the bottom. In the next section, we will have an overview of each of them.
