Hi Cameron

I was googling trying to find a Tom's Root Boot like rescue floppy that supports
XFS.

This link

http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialRecoveryAndBootDisk.html

points to another

Digitaltux.com: Rescue disks with ReiserFS and XFS support
http://www.digitaltux.com/

which now looks like it's disappeared.

Google might reveal where this package has got to, or it could be a sourceforge
project.

Does gentoo have a rescue floppy to download and/or build ? If you need it built
and you are "without linux" could I do this and mail you the floppy image ? Have
to be tomorrow now if you need a hand. Otherwise someone might be a night owl
this evening that can tackle it.

All the best with it
Harry
