Brent,
few days ago I opened topic "booting CentOS in rescrue mode from USB 
(+over network)". Yes, there is type mistake it should be "booting 
CentOS in rescue mode from USB (+over network)". I got very useful 
advice from Johnny Hudger. Please see his answer in archive.

I use RIP Linux 
(http://www.tux.org/pub/people/kent-robotti/looplinux/rip/) for 
emergency situations. There is manual how to add own programs to RIP in 
their documentation and I was successful. Unfortunately  I am not 
skilled enough to create mix of RIP Linux and CentOS rescue boot 
environment. Maybe somebody could advice how to build similar 
distribution based on CentOS rescue.

Sincerely,
Martin Minka
