Yes, I've been a fan of System Rescue CD for years. Though 5.0.0 doesn't have the grub2 packages installed, which I need. (I just now noticed they've released 5.0.1--I'll have to check it out.) Also, it's just nice to have alternatives.
Finnix used to be a good alternative, but it hasn't been updated in a couple years.
Last night I created a Fedora live USB, which I intend to try to use as a rescue CD with grub2 today. Maybe any live distro could be used that way.
TRK had only one maintainer. TRK fell victim to Windows Secure Market Share--er, secure boot--and to increased responsibilities in the maintainer's personal life which kept him from devoting the time to adapt it to secure boot's UEFI.
The last I heard, the maintainer hopes to get back to it if and when he can.
