ALT Linux is a set of RPM-based operating systems built on top of the Linux kernel and Sisyphus packages repository

ALT Linux Rescue is a moderate sized LiveCD distribution that is designed to help sysadmins fix and repair many kinds of problems with systems they are or feel responsible for; so it comes with tools aiding to:

- perform hardware diagnostics
- resize partitions
- fix bootloaders, partitions, filesystems
- recover partitions and files deleted by accident
- backup and restore to network servers
- deal with optical, tape and file archives
- optimize filesystem usage
- diagnose network problems and remote services
- wipe partitons or drives clean of residual information
- investigate unauthorized access/security breach events... More Info »

All of that is packaged into a convenient hybrid ISO image file suitable for both CD/DVD media and USB Flash pendrives. The resulting media should be bootable on most x86 systems, even with SecureBoot.
