i just discovered something today:

[www.knoppix.de](http://www.knoppix.de)

download an image, burn it, boot from cd and youve got a working linux without installing it… that rocks…

you can access ntfs-hds without passwords and some other useful things for admins… :beam:

i think its also available in english…
