    Linux Boot Disks

    I am looking for a linux boot disk with excellent NTFS support. The boot disk must be able to access by floppy and maybe CD, and nothing to flashy or big. A GUI would be preferable but not necessary. The boot disk must be able to boot extremely fast into Linux. Which do you guys suggest?

    Google is your friend; I found that four results down using the obscure search terms 'linux boot disk'. First one's free:

    http://www.bootdisk.com/linux.htm

    This should give you a starting point to work from, particularly where NTFS is concerned under the heading of 'The Linux Bootdisk HOWTO'. Just follow those instructions with an NTFS-capable kernel and you should be set.

      Did Everquest teach you that?

        Are you looking for a bootdisk or a live CD?

          Bootdisk, whether it boots from Floppy or CD, I don't care about, but preferably floppy.

              the best thing (almost only :/ ) about 2.6.x ... full ntfs write support
              if it gets me nowhere, I'll go there proud; and I'm gonna go there free.
