mounting a hard drive in system rescue disk

Gentlemen

It would be great if someone could have a hard drive mounting option in System Rescue disk since its a bit a chord to mount a EXT4 drive.

Welcome to Gentoo.

We don't have an official system rescue disk (last time I saw, at least). SystemRescueCD seems to support EXT4 all right. Do you have a specific issue with your system that you would like to discuss? Maybe elaborate a bit about your mount problem.

richprim,

Welcome to Gentoo.

You mount your root by hand, then have a script in your root than does all the fiddly bits.
If you need no assemble raid sets and start logical volumes before you can even see root, you have a script on a USB drive
