I have updated the instructions and dead links in the previous instructions for creating a talking, bootable Vinux dvd with Image for Linux restore software installed. It also contains lots of linux packages to recover Windows passwords, recover lost files, non-destructive partitioning tools, disk tests, memory tests, virus scans, and much more.

I also have a much easier set of instructions to create a similar installation onto a typical 4 GB or greater USB Flash drive! It is faster, smaller, and has the capability to retain up to 4 GB of user data in "persistent" storage. I am still testing the instructions for doing this with Vinux 3.1. I have already checked out the prefered Vinux 3.0.1 instructions. This version is better supported and there is a zip file, designed for this directly from the VinuxProject.org web site.

I keep one of these Vinux Emergency Rescue devices tucked away, ready for almost anything!

Check it out on the Vinux Wicky at:
