These already exist. Kaspersky, AVG and others provide live ISO images for burning to CD-R or flash drives. Most of them run a customized Linux environment of some sort. Pendrive Linux has a nifty tool called YUMI that installs multiple live images to a single flash drive. It's a very useful way to build a toolbox. --Rich P. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
