 Bootable business card - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The key of the "bootable business card" is that it runs completely from the CD and the system's memory (RAM).
Although the term could be applied to any "bootable" CD-ROM in the "business card" form factor it almost always refers to a compact distribution (distro) of Linux generally containing a suite of system diagnostic and rescue tools and/or demos of specific packages.
At least one of the boxed Red Hat Linux packages included a system rescue CD in business card form factor (which appears to have been a completely independent project inspired by the Linuxcare BBC).
