Backtrack live USB - Enc0de - 04-07-2011

Before we start you need to check if your computer has a USB boot option. Now the way to do this is plug in a USB flash drive in you computer and turn it off. Then turn it back on and go to your bios setting and check your boot option and see if it does give you that option If so follow this tutorial.


First thing is you have to download unetbootin either from their official site

http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net

or my upload I recommend my upload since this is the most stable version

unetbootin-337

http://www.mediafire.com/file/e3prwgjpxzxe7o8/unetbootin-windows-377.exe

Now once you have downloaded it I'm guessing you already downloaded backtrack 4 r2 if not go grap a copy here. Download the ISO not VMWARE.

Now open up Unetbootin make sure you select DiskImage and browse to where you have backtrack 4 r2 to select it.

Next always double check your usb's drive letter.

And click ok and wait till it's done and thats it hope this helps. Now just reboot.

Nice guide!!!!

One thing: If you get error like: IRQ20: nobodycared (try booting with irqpoll)

then all you have to do is: click TAB in the grub. Add: "irqpoll" without the "" on the end of the text. And hit ENTER Smile

I want you to be my Linux Mentor. Biggrin Biggrin

Ok.
I tried this method and I got this:
Quote:no DEFAULT or UI configuration directive found.
boot:

I did some research and found out that it could be the USB fault.
Do you think so?

Thank you. Smile



RE: Backtrack live USB - Enc0de - 04-07-2011

Does the grup start?

It could be you have some other USB device conflicting.


RE: Backtrack live USB - darkscorpion - 04-07-2011

no

It gives me that on the booting screen.

I bought a new USB I will test it now. Smile

Maximum screw it I will do it on VM. Tongue
