Frenzy FreeBSD-based live CD

Frenzy is a portable system administrator toolkit, a live CD based on FreeBSD. It generally contains software for hardware tests, file system check, security check and network setup and analysis.

Frenzy, a FreeBSD-based live CD featuring a variety of security, system testing, networking and penetration tools, has been resurrected. After being formally put to sleep by its creator, Sergei Mozhaisky, a developer community headed by Egor Vershinin has taken over the work. The just-released version 1.2 is the first fruit of their labour: “Frenzy 1.2 ‘reincarnation’ (community release) is out. It’s based on FreeBSD 8.0 and available in 2 editions – lite and standard. This is a first version of Frenzy that isn’t made by me – the author of this build is Egor Vershinin.” The developers have set up a new web site at frenzy.bspu.ru, with some documentation and a changelog, but it’s currently in Russian only. The project’s original web site at frenzy.org.ua also has some information about the new release. The “lite” edition of Frenzy only includes command line tools, but the “standard” edition comes with X.Org and Fluxbox.
