Or rescuing data when the hard drive or your system seems to go nuts . 
It always seems to do that the day of or the day before the scheduled 
backups. 

I haven't tried w/ the latest Knoppix, but one could boot from it, and 
actually save files to remote drives , CDs or DVDs and similar. A 
version customized to make that easier would be nice. Not necessary, 
but nice. 

There seem to be as many reasons for customizing one of those bootable 
cd/dvds as there are folks who use them .
