SystemRescue (Previously known as "SystemRescueCD")[4] is a Linux distribution for x86-64 and IA-32 computers.[5] The primary purpose of SystemRescue is to repair unbootable or otherwise damaged computer systems after a system crash. SystemRescue is not intended to be used as a permanent operating system. It runs from a Live CD, a USB flash drive or any type of hard drive. It was designed by a team led by François Dupoux, and is based on Arch Linux since version 6.0.[6] Starting with version 6.0, it has systemd as its init system.[7]
