I truly loved this project but now has like 2 years orphaned and the website is not current. RIP for RIP.

I've used this for years now. It is concerning that there have been no releases and to the best of my recollection no public/open source copy of the build scripts. Thus it would be a big job to recreate the same distribution from scratch. Support rated low only due to the lack of updates and any indication it is still being developed.

Simply the best rescue, "credit card" sized Linux ever. Unfortunately it appears that Kent Robotti has abandoned it. I dropped some bucks in his PayPal and couldn't raise him. I hope he's not ill or worse.

This software is probably one of the best to fix pc problems when all else fails. Have been struggling with a friends laptop on and off for months. Would begin startup and quit before any screen messages . It was supposedly fried, all sources said it was a motherboard or processor dead. Before handing it back to her as a doorstop, I found RIPLinux-13.7 thru a Bing search and decided to try it. Downloaded, ran iso burner onto a dvd, placed into tray of dead laptop, and started up. Immediately fixed bad bios, checked everything out and told me to restart. Laptop is alive and healthy now.
