Now it's using the archiso stuff, which is nice in that you can just dd it to a USB drive, but it's not FAT32 any more so it's not writable and you can't resize it. For a rescue system I like being able to use the rest of my 32GB USB drive for data.

It also seems to have ballooned in size, from ~580MB to ~910MB. Wonder what the bloat is.

You can have a backing store for customizations... but you need to change the bootloader config... but it's an ISO so you can't... and the alternate FAT32 installation method is UEFI-only... something wasn't well thought out here. http://www.system-rescue-cd.org/manual/Creating_a_backing_store/ …

Probably easier to build custom ISOs than with Gentoo. I just hope they fix the regressions and think through the USB setup a bit more. I like Arch too, but it's the little things for something like SystemRescueCD that matter.

Stock Arch ISO comes with zsh as the default shell. Can't judge as to whether it's "nice" or not though, as I prefer bash and usually disable zsh right after configuring the keyboard layout.

I like that SysRescCD switched to bash from zsh - I could never get zsh to work for me.
