There's a utility called Boot CD that allows you to create a bootable
OSX cd and including applications on it that you want to have on the CD.
I created an emergency boot CD with all my disk and file recovery apps
on it.

Read the documentation carefully and fully test your new CD and the
applications on it before assuming everything is fine. I had to fiddle
around a little to make sure I had all the proper library files on the
CD before some of the apps ran properly

Where can I get this? It was not on C-net or Apple downloads. Google
didn't find it either?
