[GRLUG] live cd on vista?

[Godwin]

I created a BartPE disk ages ago from WinXP and, basically, the only
good use I've found for it is when disk/data corruptions occurs and
you end up with tons of files/folders with ridiculously wierd names
which give bash a run for its money to try to delete.  Even if you go
to a top level directory and try to "rm -rf" recursively delete a
directory tree, it still pukes.  The BartPE windows environment has
deleted those and even renamed a few just fine.  Plus, you can run
things like scandisk and the like.
