[Beddingfield, Allen]

Finnix live cd, and maybe a few others.  Install media for whatever OS they are running.  Spare hard drives.  Laptop.  External USB drives.  Screwdriver/socket set.  Spare power supply, if appropriate.

So you're heading to a remote location to do some technical work. You don't know the area so a dash to your fav parts store is not an option.
What do you pack in your kit for a 2 hour drive away, 10 hour drive away, 3 hour flight away, out of the country trip, etc.

Software....
Hardware...
Tools....
Misc....

This may turn into a meeting topic.
