LinuxCare has a bootable business card size CD that can be used as a rescue disk and
it's GPL'ed and there is soem additional development going on with it.
Tomsrtbt would be a good bootable image to use for a rescue disk - you could fill the
CD with teh specific utilities you would need if tomsrtbt did not have them.
Try and not re-invent the wheel.
