What is Trinity Rescue Kit | CPR for your computer


Trinity Rescue Kit or TRK is a free live Linux distribution that aims specifically at recovery and repair operations on Windows machines, but is equally usable for Linux recovery issues. Since version 3.4 it has an easy to use scrollable text menu that allows anyone who masters a keyboard and some English to perform maintenance and repair on a computer, ranging from password resetting over disk cleanup to virus scanning.

It is possible to boot TRK in three different ways: 
-as a bootable CD which you can burn yourself from a downloadable isofile or a self burning Windows executable
-from a USB stick/disk (optionally also a fixed disk), installable from Windows or from the bootable TRK cd (which is easier and safer)
-from network over PXE: you start 1 TRK from CD or USB and you run all other computers from that one over the network without modifying anything to you local network.
Ever since version 3.4, TRK has received an easy to use textmenu but has equally kept the commandline.

Here 's a sumup of some of the most important features, new and old:

-easily reset windows passwords with the improved winpass tool
-simple and easy menu interface
-5 different virusscan products integrated in a single uniform commandline with online update capability
-full ntfs write support thanks to ntfs-3g
-winclean, a utility that cleans up all sorts of unnecessary temporary files on your computer.
-clone computers over the network via multicast.
-wide range of hardware support (kernel 2.6.35 )
-contributed backup utility called "pi", to automate local machine backups
-easy script to find and mount all local filesystems
-self update capability to include and update all virusscanners + local changes you made to TRK.
-full proxyserver support.
-run a samba fileserver (windows like filesharing)
-run a ssh server
-recovery and undeletion of files with utilities and procedures
-recovery of lost partitions
-evacuation of dying disks
-full read/write and rpm support
-UTF-8 international character support (select keyboard language from the scrollable textmenu at startup)
-2 rootkit detection uitilities
-most software updated to recent versions
-literally thousands of changes and bugfixes since version 3.3
-elaborated documentation, including manpages for all commands (also TRK 's own)

What is a Country? देश भनेकाे के हाे?

Yesterday, on January 13, Nepal's Coat of Arms was updated to add Kalapani and Limpiyadhura as in the new Political map. In this context, we today discuss on what actually 'a country is for it's citizen.' देश भनेकाे के हाे? What is a Country? जनताका लागि देश के हो ? जनताका लागि देश संविधान, कानुन, नागरिकता, सिमाना र झन्डा मात्र हो ? होइन । जनताका लागि देश राजधानी, त्यसबीच ठडिएको दरबार र त्यसको गजुर हो ? होइन । जनताका लागि देश भनेको सरकार हो ? होइन । जनताका लागि देश निर्वाचन क्षेत्र मात्र हो ? हुँदै होइन । त्यसो भए जनताका लागि के हो त देश ? जनताका लागिदेश चार सिमानाभित्रको माटो मात्र होइन । योसँगै जोडिने भावना, प्रेम, ऊर्जा र सपनाहरूको बगैंचा हो । जनताका लागि देश आशा हो । जनताका लागि देश खेतमा झरेको पसिनाको बियाड हो । आन्दोलनहरूमा सडकमा पोखिएको रगत हो । आफ्ना सपनाहरूको कविता हो । जस्तो, एउटा शिशुका लागि आमाको काख । जस्तो, भर्खर हिँड्दै गरेको एउटा बालकका लागि पिताजीको हात । एउटा यात्रीका लागि देश बाटो हो, जसमाथि ऊ आफ्ना पैतालाका डोबहरू छोड्छ र गन्तव्यतिर बढ्छ । देश भनेको ...
