Knoppix.
Its Debian based, and is a very good demonstrator of whether all the
hardware in a box is usable by Linux. Unless told otherwise it does not
write to any disk, but you can install it to disk it you want. It is
perhaps the fullest function recovery CD there is.
It includes not only basic functions, but also Open Office and the like.

Please respond

There was discussion (I think on this list) of a CDROM that allowed someone
to boot and run Linux from a CDROM without installing Linux.
I didn't pay much attention at the time, but now I think I know someone who
could benefit from this.
Can anyone refresh my memory?
thanks

When they took the fourth amendment,
I was quiet because I didn't deal drugs!
When they took the sixth amendment,
I was quiet because, I was innocent.
When they took the second amendment,
I was quiet because I didn't own a gun!
Now they've taken the first amendment,
and I can say (or do) nothing about it.
The Second Amendment is in place in case they ignore the others.
