Be aware when trying to secure copy files from another host to mkCDrec’s rescued PC on the first console (/dev/console – use the “tty” command is verify), e.g.

# scp user@other_hsost:/tmp/missing_file /tmp

Host key verification failed.

An error may be expected as seen above. Nothing to worry as this is a SSH restriction! Switch to another console (ALT-F2…). Use again the “tty” command to verify, e.g. /dev/tty2. And, try again.

Now success it guaranteed.
