Everyone always says to have a flashlight and candles in the house in case of emergencies.... well what about when it comes to computers?

I am thinking I want to put together a recovery/emergency type of CD that I can keep in a safe place for if/when my PCs take a dirt nap. What utilities/tools/etc would you shove onto that 600MB platter?

And I don't necissarily mean backing up your system. I more mean what would you need as a bear minimum to get the system back up and going so then you can run your backup software.

I would recommend BartPE (http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/), it's a ready image of all the tools you would need to recover your rig.
cheers!
