This includes, in some cases, new versions of commands and patches that have not yet been released on media. This section is meant to be used as a reference for what is on the systems when they are shipped. Consider customizing your system and then creating your own ‘golden image’ for use in restoring systems in the event that the systems need to be rebuilt. A Recovery CD that automatically loads this software has also been provided for your convenience.
