SAR is my package to make a bootable `search-and-rescue' disk. The disk is
created with the current kernel and the current programs on your hdu, so
that you will hopefully have all on a floppy when your hdu crashes and
when you need to access your backup medium. SAR also comes in handy when
you forget your root password...
NOTE: This SAR version is NOT for elf systems, though it may well build for
elf. All I use is still a.out.
The primary site for SAR is (still) ftp.icce.rug.nl, directory /pub/unix, file
SAR-*.tar.gz. Get it from there, or wait 'till it gets moved to the right
directories on sunsite and tsx.
Here's the LSM entry:

Title: SAR: a Search And Rescue set
Version: 2.25
Description: SAR is a script which creates a Search And Rescue floppy set,
to be used after the unfortunate crash of your hard disk. The
floppy is created using *your* up-to-date kernel and utility
set, so it is as recent as you like. Configuration files allow
customized creation of the SAR set. SAR now includes: a one or
two floppy rescue set, files copied via my "holecp" utility
(saving space), and my Kiss "simple shell".
Contains extensive doumentation and utility programs.
Keywords: backup rescue SAR search first-aid
