A few weeks ago I messed up my Windows XP install. I can't blame MS for
this one, it was mostley User Error :(

I know there are a few versions of Linux which will run from a CD-ROM. Some
are meant to run from CD (Morphix) and some are demos (live-eval from SuSE).

Is there one that will allow me to read NTFS file systems? It would be
great to boot off a CD and be able to read a NTFS file system and do some
network stuff or cd-rom burning to rescue some files.

Thanks in advance.
