Probably yes. Just to be completely sure - do I understand you
correctly that despite the name of this 'OS Restore CD', booting
from this BOOTP server does not just blindly restore the OS on
the RaQ to its original state, but you can also just boot it and
log in a root?
How do I order this CD and how much does it cost?
Warm greetings, Norbert.
