I remember using this when it first came out. It was a game changer for doing forensics back before full disk encryption was a common thing.
- jonwinstanley 3mo agoVery nostalgic! I remember using this a few times around maybe 2005 when a Windows system got corrupted. Knoppix would boot from the CD and let you recover files from your HD. Loved it
