The Debian live CD isn't much as a rescue CD; it lacks parted and lvm,
for example. At least the text only image I used did. Of course, you
can install those packages after startup.
I wasn't logged in, and it took some searching to find out the right

Yes; I ended up with the Debian Installer. I think I've found the
right place now. Of course, there's Knoppix, but the smaller image is
a bit dated.

Even in installer mode, nothing is written on the disks until you
validate the changes in partman, the partitioning tool.
So the operations are simply setting up an environment for doing the
rescue, not overwriting the existing system? I'm happy to change my
