Subject: [gentoo-user] [OT] Linux Live CD to perform hardware audit?

Excuse me for starting an off-topic thread,

But do any of you guys/gals know of a Live CD distro that can perform
hardware audit? i.e., detect installed processor model, RAM parameters &
layout, etc.

It's gotta be a Live CD because the boxes currently installed are running
either VMware or XenServer and I am reluctant to open them up. So I guess
I'll just shutdown the box, boot using the Live CD, record all important
info, and reboot into the hypervisor.

Rgds,
