Live CD review

Hey all,
I’m doing some testing with some live CDs and plan on writing some reviews for the ones that I work with and like. So far I am using Auditor, FIRE, WinPE, Gentoo live CD, and a few others. Ill have the reviews up when I finish with them, but in the mean time if there are any Live CDs you would like me to review or think are worth using leave a reply and ill see if I can get to them. I’m looking specifically for data recovery, security auditing, and virus/malware cleaning ability. Also just really cool stuff lol.

Hey XTC46,

I have just started using Slackware Linux live CD {Renamed to SLAX)... It is pretty cool.
If you take my advice you will review it.

Cheers

The Knoppix Live Security CD is in your plans, right?

Also you trying out the NIST toolkit CD too?

ola,

Well, I have a several of them and SuSE 9.1 Live Eval is on top followed closely by Knoppix.

But to getter done, "Knoppix". You can make your own as well.

cheers

I am looking forward to the new version of Knoppix-STD. Nice one to play with and learn.

How about Ubuntu Linux Live CD

Well ... I really think Whoppix is the best security based live cd !!!. It comes with a lot of stuffs from
flash animations to a huge collection of exploits. Its got all the tools from netcat to nessus. Security
enthusiasts wouldn't wanna miss this live cd !
