What about the  installation  of new packages?   Since Backtrack 2  is based

on Slax,  then one can  visit  slax.org  to get the  desired modules.  There are

many types of modules there.  These modules  can be added  through remas-

tering process.  If  you  need  certain  modules  while  running  the  Live CD,

just execute the uselivemod command to install the module to a Live CD. The

download/installed module can be used immediately. If you need the Nvidia

driver or  even the 915resolution (for your Intel graphic card) tool,  they are

available as modules at slax.org's modules download section.   

By the way,  before you can use the  .mo modules,  you  have to convert it the

said module to .lzm type  using the mo2lzm command.  However, if you need

remaster your Backtrack 2 Live CD, it is wise to visit  linux-live.org.  For  your

information, remastering of Backtrack Live CD is much easier than knoppix.

Backtrack 2 can be installed into usbkey  in  two ways.  Livecd  install that will

use 700 Mb of usbkey space or real  install that would take 2700 Mb of space.

In order to install Backtrack to my 1GB  high-speed  usbkey,  I had  to  launch

the installer. Then I had to mount the Backtrack 2.0 Live CD using Konqueror.

Then I had to type in  the  location  of  my  Live CD  at  the  source part of the

installer  manually  as  the  installer  did not  automatically  detect  my Live CD.

It took 5 minutes to install the compressed version (700MB)  of  Backtrack 2.0

to my usbkey.

The reason why I needed Backtrack 2 on my usbkeys was because  I can use

them to boot Backtrack 2 on my home PC and also office PC. I would use it to

protect my wlan. Of course,  I also wanted to show it to my friends too.
