What Live CDs Do You Carry Around?

Posted by Cliff on from the another-tool-in-the-toolbox dept.

TPC asks: "I recently acquired a small CD case that fits 12 CDs. I figured that it would be useful to always carry around a few CDs to use when helping others with computer issues, or in case something goes wrong with my own computer. However, I'm having a hard time deciding what CDs to pick, and there are probably many hidden gems out there. I'm sure I'm not the first person with this idea, so I ask you: What 12 live (and otherwise) CDs would you carry around?"

  1. Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, Damnsmalllinux, UBCD by From+A+Far+Away+Land · · Score: 5, Interesting

    My favourites are Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, Damnsmalllinux.org, and the Ultimate Boot CD [which my Dad loves for the hard disk utilities].

    I plan on ordering Ubuntu discs from ShipIt, and handing them out at the Vista launch event on January 9th.
