No such file on the system. It is a live boot cd that was created by the 
previous author of the 
project. It only has the userid of g4l, which appears to be used in place of 
root.

There is no X11 on the system, just a text base, and it uses dialog for the 
text gui.

The project is a boot cd that runs from ramdisk, and creates compress 
disk/partition images 
on local or ftp or sshfs.
