Dear SL Live DVD developers,

I had some trouble to fix and used the Live DVD 6.2 to help.
Live 6.2 has a utility loaded into the task bar called
"gnome-disk-utility (palimpsest )".  Caught a bad backup
drive.  Dodged a bullet on that one!  Thank you guys!

I noticed that Live 6.5 does not have this utility loaded.
Is okay, the 6.2 one works well and I will keep a copy
of that.

Request: when you guys put together the new Live DVD 7.0,
would you please include the following:

1) "gnome-disk-utility (palimpsest )" loaded in the task bar

2)  dump and xfsdump (to restore drives with)

3)  gparted

4)  leafpad

5)  ntfsfix

6)  gdisk

7)  chntpw

8)  xdiskusage

9)  overlook-fing

This will make it a nice repair/rescue disk.  And it
will flag bad hard drives, as does the 6.2 disk.

Many thanks,
-T
