I used to use the Debian Live image as a rescue CD as it's pretty easy
to install additional software as-needed and there wasn't any ramdisk
limitation issues. Going from Debian to Devuan was pretty easy. It's
also easy to make your own live ISOs with the Debian tooling preloaded
with common debug tools like gparted, debsums, rkhunter etc.
