Description Perl scripts to build rescue disk(s) to revive a system
 .
 Yard is a suite of Perl scripts for creating custom boot/rescue
 disks.  Using a compressed filesystem, it can put a standard kernel
 image plus about 2.4 meg of utilities on a single floppy.  Yard is
 also useful for creating self-contained Linux-on-a-floppy systems.
 You specify a basic set of files and utilities for inclusion and
 Yard handles many of the details.  Features:
  - File specs allow absolute and relative filenames, symbolic links,
    file replacements and full shell-style globbing.
  - Automatically determines necessary libraries and loaders.
  - Allows stripping of binaries and libraries during copying.
  - Automatically regenerates ld.so.cache
  - Checks for broken symlinks
  - Checks /etc/{fstab,inittab,termcap,pam.conf} for common errors and
    inconsistencies.
  - Checks user directories and files mentioned in /etc/passwd
  - Checks command files (eg, rc.local and .login) and scripts for
    missing binaries and command interpreters.
  - Automatically performs filesystem compression and copying.
  - Can be used with or without LILO.
  - Can make single or double disk sets.
  - Extensive checking of user choices and execution errors.
