I would not expect a RESCUE system to be a complete, fully functional system. It is a debug & repair environment. I expect it to run tools like full YaST, gparted, mc. xfs and other specific filesystem tools. rsync. Man pages. Info pages. A PDF reader. A web browser, to seek help on Internet.
If you expect a web browser, the openSUSE rescue system is not what you want. You better use a full live system off a USB stick or DVD. Running a web browser as root is never a good idea, and the rescue system only has the root user.
Well, I'm talking of exactly that. A USB stick, CD size, named "openSUSE rescue image". It was available till openSUSE 13.2, I think. Yes, I tried to roll my own but I did not succeed. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
