I'm looking for a linux distro with the following:
- Boots quickly, as fast as possible.
- Has expected tools such as file browser, a web browser, etc.
- Doesn't need to have extraneous recovery stuff such as partition editors, and what not.
These are the tools I have and use already:
- ophcrack
- Ultimate Boot CD for Windows (UBCD4Win)
- chntpw (Offline NT Password and Registry Editor)
- Hiren's BootCD
- gparted or Parted Magic
- Ubuntu
- nubuntu
Any and all suggestions are welcome :-) The primary objective is to get a quick booting linux distro that I can grab / delete / move / copy files with.
Currently, I prefer using ophcrack, it boots in (relatively) fast and I can manipulate files well. The one that takes the longest is ubuntu of course.
