Isn't DP for Linux is a bit redundant? Most Linux drivers get included in the kernel itself eventually, it is only the binary drivers that can't be included.
That's exactly what I thought as well. But heck, I'm definitely not a Linux expert 
I could get this all done easier with Knoppix DVD and a 1MB download and compile.
But most do not have a DVD in the office, and I couldn't download if there is no internet.
FYI, Knoppix also has a CD version out.

You can't compile modules on a different kernel and then try to use it on another kernel, it won't work.
I see.
I will have to find out exactly what needs to be done. Maybe compiling a driverpack into the recovery CD's kernel. I know you can do customize Knoppix Live CD's. Maybe I can customize this Recovery CD with driverpacks.

Only for the high-level Linux / Unix systems that have everything installed.
I am working with the text-based Windows Recovery via Linux (very slim, 3+ MB).
I would like to fill the CD with drivers; mostly Mass Storage for accessing NTFS SATA/RAID from Linux.

What's life without projects?

I would love to create a DriversPack for Linux, it seems to be my future OS that will allow me to retire early.
[Edit]
I just seen some tutorials in the 3rd Party forum...

For the CD that uses Linux and needs Linux drivers:

Instead of using Winternals Administrator Tools (Password Recovery) which I could use easily [costly], I would like to use the Open Source version of ntpasswd.
