The release of SystemRescue 9.0.0 is now available, a dedicated Arch Linux-based live distribution designed for system disaster recovery. Xfce is used as the graphical environment. The size of the iso image is 771 MB (amd64, i686).
The changes in the new version include the translation of the system initialization script from Bash to Python, as well as the implementation of initial support for setting system parameters and autorun using files in YAML format. The main package includes the aq, libisoburn, patch, python-llfuse, python-yaml and rdiff-backup packages, as well as a selection of documentation from the site. The Linux kernel has been updated to branch 5.15, which offers a new NTFS driver with write support.
The sysrescue-customize script has been implemented to build your own versions of ISO images with SystemRescue. The full Mesa package has been replaced with a stripped-down version, saving 52 MB of disk space. Due to stability issues, the xf86-video-qxl driver has been removed. The inetutils (telnet, ftp, hostname) package, previously excluded from the base by mistake, has been returned.
