"Pentoo, a Network Security Consortium distribution based off
of Gentoo, has released their Mini-Pentoo v2006.0 build. This
distribution does include such packages as GAIM and Firefox, however,
its key purpose is to provide elite applications and tools to perform
penetration testing. Not only is this a great LiveCD security
distribution, but it comes without many of the hassles beginning Linux
users have faced when attempting to run Gentoo, and of course Emerge is
included. Pentoo utilizes the Linux 2.6.14 kernel and Enlightenment
environment. Some of the tools include changing a Windows NT password
from a hard drive, changing or resetting CMOS passwords, John The
Ripper, and Ethereal Network Sniffer."
