rfs is a shell script for creating and updating a local spare system disk. The main goal is to recover a working system after a crash quickly. In this case, "quickly" means the time it takes to reboot the machine. rfs stands for "replication of filesystems". Like rsyncbackup, rfs is built on top of rsync.

Grml is a live system (live CD) based on Debian. It includes a collection of GNU/Linux software especially for system administrators and users of texttools. It provides automatic hardware detection and its default shell is the zsh. You can use it e.g. as a rescue system, for analyzing systems/networks, or as a working environment. It is not necessary to install anything to a hard disk; you don't even need a hard disk to run it. Due to on-the-fly decompression, it includes more than 2 GB of software and documentation on the CD.

kmp_search

kmp_search is an extremely fast exact string search utility that can be used to search for exact strings or patterns in binary and text files and devices. It can search for multiple strings concurrently, but is much faster when searching for strings one-by-one. The starting byte offset of each match is reported to stdout. Because it is extremely fast, it can be used in a data recovery process after a multi-gigabyte file system crash. The Knuth-Morris-Pratt algorithm is used for the search, which gives a total time of O(file length + pattern length).
