Install Backtrack 4 Beta with Modification

2009-04-13T18:45:00.000+07:00

Backtrack 4 Beta does not contain an installer in it yet, so we've compiled this cookbook for getting the "perfect" BT4 install up and running quickly. The assumption is that you are installing BT4 on an empty disk /dev/sda (mybee diffrent with your's). Make sure to adjust this accordingly if needed.

Then what we need is prepare for partition, we can use QTparted,but in BT4 beta, if we want to use it we must edit the shortcut from qtparted-root to qtparted or you can open console then type qtparted and press "enter", after window open then make partition for /, swap and mybee another partition.

To start installation, open console and write in console like this :

root@bt:~# mkswap /dev/sda8 (this for swap)
root@bt:~# swapon /dev/sda8 (make swap partition on)
root@bt:~# mkreiserfs /dev/sda2 (make /dev/sda2 for / with type reiserFS)
root@bt:~# mkdir /mnt/bt
root@bt:~# mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/bt
root@bt:~# cp --preserve -R /{bin,dev,home,pentest,root,usr,boot,etc,lib,opt,sbin,var} /mnt/bt/
root@bt:~# mkdir /mnt/bt/{mnt,tmp,proc,sys,media} <== this my modification, we make media directory
root@bt:~# chmod 1777 /mnt/bt/tmp/
root@bt:~# mount -t proc proc /mnt/bt/proc
root@bt:~# mount -o bind /dev /mnt/bt/dev/
root@bt:~# chroot /mnt/bt/ /bin/bash
root@bt:~# nano /etc/lilo.conf

for example this is my config for lilo.conf
==================================================================
lba32
boot=/dev/sda
root=/dev/sda2

# bitmap=/boot/sarge.bmp
# bmp-colors=1,,0,2,,0
# bmp-table=120p,173p,1,15,17
# bmp-timer=254p,432p,1,0,0
# install=bmp

# delay=20

prompt
timeout=50

# map=/boot/map

vga=0x317

image=/boot/vmlinuz
label="BT4-Console"
read-only
initrd=/boot/splash.initrd
append=quiet

image=/boot/vmlinuz
label="BT4-ConsoleNoFB"

image =/boot/mt86p
label ="MemtestUtility"

other = /dev/sda1
label ="Windows7"
table = /dev/sda
==================================================================

root@bt:~# nano /etc/fstab

for example this is my config for fstab, make your's similar like this
==================================================================
/dev/sda2 / reiserfs defaults 0 0 # AutoUpdate
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 # AutoUpdate
sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 # AutoUpdate
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 # AutoUpdate
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 # AutoUpdate
/dev/sda8 none swap auto,defaults,pri=1 0 0 # AutoUpdate
==================================================================

root@bt:~# lilo -v
root@bt:~# exit
root@bt:~# reboot

Then after it reboot set it to "start with empty session", to do this just
from K menu => Settings => KDE Components => Session Manager

take from Backtrack 4 Beta The Perfect Harddisk Install v2, muts@remote-exploit.org with any modification

Customizing Backtrack 4 Beta

2009-04-10T19:57:00.003+07:00

First login with username "root" and password "toor" then do what you want

Enable networking

root@bt:~# /etc/init.d/networking start
root@bt:~# /etc/init.d/NetworkManager start
root@bt:~# update-rc.d networking defaults
root@bt:~# update-rc.d NetworkManager defaults

command update-rc.d is for start the service at startup, so in future we don't have to configure it again.

Enable Firewall

ufw is program for managing a Linux firewall and aims to provide an easy to use interface for the user. To enable and make it auto start at startup just do like this :

root@bt:~# /etc/init.d/ufw enable

To turning off just do the same thing but at last replace enable with disable

Enable tinyproxy

tinyproxy is an HTTP proxy server designed to consume a minimum of system resources. It listens on a given TCP port and handles HTTP proxy requests.
To enable it just do like this :

root@bt:~# /etc/init.d/tinyproxy start

Install Kmix

Kmix is a mini audio mixer for kde. It allows the user to change volume settings for each sound device (master, CD, line, mic, ...), in default Backtrack doesn't come with this program, so for installing it just do like this :
a. Open Synaptic packagemanager from Kmenu then search package name kmix-kde3
b. Install it with give a checkmark and press apply
c. To run it just open terminal and type

root@bt:~# /opt/kde3/bin/kmix

and to make it start at startup just do like this, open terminal and type

root@bt:~# cd .kde3/Autostart/
root@bt:~/.kde3/Autostart# ln -s /opt/kde3/bin/kmix kmix

Boot Linux from USB drive

2009-04-06T05:34:00.000+07:00

Making is easy for anyone to install, boot and run Linux portably from a USB drive! What we need is download a UNetbootin that can run from Windows or Linux, you just double click at the program and then you just follow the instruction then you will get your bootable usb. Many distro that we can install,like Ubuntu nice Linux for home user, NTPasswda utility which can rescue Windows Password and Registry,

Installation and Screenshots
1. If using Windows, run the file, select a distribution and also the version, then find the disk image or kernel/initrd to load, select a target drive (USB Drive or Hard Disk), then reboot once done.

2. If using Linux, make the file executable (using either the command chmod +x ./unetbootin-linux, or going to Properties->Permissions and checking "Execute"), then start the application, you will be prompted for your password to grant the application administrative rights, then the main dialog will appear, where you select a distribution and install target (USB Drive or Hard Disk), then reboot when prompted.

3. After rebooting, if you created a Live USB drive by selecting "USB Drive" as your install target, press the appropriate button (usually F1, F2, F12, ESC, or backspace) while your computer is starting up to get to your BIOS boot menu and select USB drive as the startup target; otherwise if there's no boot selection option, go to the BIOS setup menu and change the startup order to boot USB by default. Otherwise, if you did a "frugal install" by selecting "Hard Disk" as your install target, select the UNetbootin entry from the Windows Boot Menu as the system boots up.
