I've got myself a remote server located faaar away from me (other side of the world), and need to build a rescue CD for it in case things go wrong.
Unfortunately most bootable linux CDs dont enable things like ssh servers, and generally cant be built with static IP addresses into the CD image. Does anyone know of a bootable distro with these features: - *easily* buildable iso with pre-configured ip address - ssh service enabled automatically on bootup - suitable for headless machines (ie no options to type on bootup)- - Doesnt require a floppy to read the (network) config I've been looking around quite a lot and so far nothing I've found will let me stick the CD into the machine, have it boot and be instantly network reachable. (And dhcp is not an option here). Anyone know of something I've missed, or an easy way to adapt something like knoppix?
