Recent commentsI've lost count of the number of times RIP has allowed me to save a friend's Windows system!
I love this project !
Sorry to hear that's the last R.I.P release ...
I use it with a small twist:
boot only from network
gpxe loads from url kernel + initramfs and one network module,
httpfs mounts a ripx iso
initramfs has only busybox,init,fuse, httpfs , libraries and links to all other files mounted by httpfs, so I have fast boot time and get the rest on demand.
I saw Slax is getting this path so I must learn how to do those modules...:((
Please keep alive this project !
Mirror broken
The listed mirror site
http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/linux/system/recovery/ is broken or very very out of date.
