You guys got me thinking about browsing the web from the recovery CD. I stayed up way to late last night playing around with sources\boot.wim. I was able to add Firefox portable, A43 File browser and Ghost 8.2 to the Ghost 15 SRD. It's not that hard once you learn to use DISM.exe. I believe DISM is included with Vista and Windows 7. The pictures below are from Vitual PC running the Custom SRD. I put this on my flash drive and was able to surf the web running the recovery disc environment. Cool stuff. Probably wouldn't hurt to add some HDD diagnostic software.
