[Announce] rescuebootstick


package
md5sum
source # Only shell scripts and config files are packaged.

quote of the README:
Quote:
rescuebootstick writes an USB boot stick allowing to boot an installed Linux system with a known to work kernel and associated initrd and try to find and boot other systems installed in the same machine
Requirement: grub and xorriso. Should work on any Linux system, including of course Slackware. Main use case: run it before a kernel upgrade, just in case.

Usage: rescuebootstick
No need to be root or use sudo.
grub should be installed but does not need to be otherwise used.
