The rescue disk program

AVP Rescue Disk Program is Kaspersky Antivirus package component used for creation of the rescue disks set.

Following the program launch the Wizard window is open which consists of a sequence of windows (steps), in each of which certain actions should be done.

The Configuration window allows you to select the disk types for creation: boot disk and/or disk with anti-virus bases

To create a boot disk, copy to it the bootdisk.img file containing Linux OS system files and the anti-virus scanner in the low-level format. The boot disk should be created only once, because the information it contains is not modified. The disk with the anti-virus bases should be created following each new update.

In the Anti-virus bases window you have to specify the path to the AVP.SET file. This file is included into Kaspersky Antivirus package and contains a list of available anti-virus databases.

In the Drive window you have to select the logical drive, where the files will be copied.

Then, the program will copy the files to the selected logical drive. During the copying process the application may demand additional disks.

When the files are copied to the disks, you will see the Finished window. This means, that the rescue disk creation program has completed operation.

To change the Wizard windows click Next (one step forward) and Back (one step back). To finish the task creation, click Finish. To cancel the rescue disk set creation, click Cancel.

If for any reason the files haven’t been successfully copied to the disks, start the Wizard again.

The Rescue Disks
The rescue disks are used for the system recovery after a virus attack. These disks include:

System files of Linux operating system;

Antiviral scanner;

Anti-virus databases.

The rescue disks work on the following principle. Let’s imagine that as a result of a virus attack your computer is not capable of initial boot, then you have to boot your computer using a bootable disk from an emergency set. The bootable disk will install Linux operating system, then start the antiviral scanner. When needed, the disk will require the disks with anti-virus databases.
