Techopedia Explains Linux Recovery
Linux recovery is typically required when the operating system crashes or due to a corrupted system boot problem, data deletion, virus outbreak or any similar event that halts or affects the performance of the operating system. By default, Linux-based operating systems include a native system recovery mode that is initiated at system startup. This utility helps in restoring and repairing corrupted operating system files, operating system reinstallation and in restoring the system to a previous data or state.
