Small 32-bit live CD required - must fit on CDR
I'm looking for a live CD for some recovery work (Debian-based would be great, but anything considered).
It'll to be a live CD and will need to fit on a CDR. No desktop environment required (very unlikely that one would fit, of course). I suspect it'll need to be i386 as well.
Any suggestions?
20 years ago I'd probably have just used Knoppix CD (and of course that may still be an option: http://ftp.uni-kl.de/pub/linux/knoppix/ ), but what else should I be considering? |

Knoppix was the King of live cd's.
Used to use Puppy and Slax way back when. I think another mini is something that starts with an A. Forget. Don't think it is Astrumi.
Some of the older Opensuse might have fit on a bootable cd and actually could run live but I forget now.

Slitaz might work.

Thanks - all good suggestions.
The requirement went away in the end (thankfully!).
