Is there any only-terminal linux live usb distro?

Question

I was looking for distro with not GUI that I could use in a live USB. The idea is that when I turn the computer on and choose to boot from the USB I could get only a terminal from which I could execute some programs and maybe access the hard drive for repairing. Thank you,

there are so many to choose from: https://grml.org/ http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html https://www.slax.org/ ... you can also put multiple ones onto one usb-stick via http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/

Solution 2

Yes. You can try Arch Linux for example. You can download it from here - archlinux.org/download/.

This question may be worth rephrasing as right now it appears to be asking for a product recommendation, which is Off Topic for superuser.com.
