And usually, they don't want to do such things by hand. The rescue mode must be installed into the hard disk. Because 1) Maybe users don't have more computers (so can't re-burn DVD or dd a LiveCD to a USB stick) 2) Maybe users broke their DVDs A single-user mode sometimes can be used as a rescue mode. But usually it's not what end-users want. Regards, Mike Manilone
