	Most distros come with a rescue image in the CD somewhere. If
you haven't got a CD (or you can't get it to boot properly for some
reason), you are encouraged ;-) to have a look at either
tomsrbtbtztbtxt<ad nauseam> or mulinux. They are located at:
	http://www.toms.net (follow link there)
	http://sunsite.auc.dk/mulinux

	I have not used tomsXXXX (can't remember what the XXX stands
for), but I have used mulinux quite a bit. If you just want to play
around with a knackered drive, you only need the basic mulinux floppy,
and you don't need to bother about the add ons (such as the LaTeX
facilities). It will do most of the rescue you'll ever want to get done.

	Regards,
	José
