Exclamation Backtrack Ultimate Network tool!

Most may already heard or are using Backtrack but i thought id post it for anyone that hasnt heard of it. Backtrack is a very cool linux distro which can be installed on the hdd or ran from a cd or even ran from a 1gb USB Stick!!. It has 100's of tools for network pen testing, will install most wlan cards including laptop ones. I managed to break my wlan network in under 10mins using backtrack. Its very fun to play around with but it does require some linux know how to use. Best of all, its FREE to download and use.

Check this out guys its the best 'free' software ive found in ages!

Website linky!

If you think rap sucks or isn't "real music", quit being pretentious and go sample something that isn't on the radio:
De La Soul, Lupe Fiasco, Common, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Brand Nubian, Canibus, A Tribe Called Quest, The Roots, Gang Starr, Digital Underground, Kanye West, Immortal Technique, etc.

Better yet, try to make a 4 minute spoken word poem read to a beat that doesn't suck or sound corny if you think hip hop has no talent.

Backtrack + Multiple Networks + Load Balancing = Uber internets.

ok. so BT wont boot on my acer aspire 5520-5142.
im booting from a live cd. the screen goes black and stays that way. when i press the power button, it goes to the load screen but is froze and wont do anything. i have done this multiple times with the same results. the live cd works becuse it works fine with my desktop. btw, my acer is a lappy.

any suggeestions?

It has problems on lots of laptops. Won't work on my sister's dell or my friends gateway. Usually a display incompatibility. You are probably out of luck.

edit: Love the distro. I've ran it off my usb drive for a long time. One of my top three distros ever. Remember, it's not so nice if you don't need the tools on it, so don't think it will become your desktop replacement. It is just a tool. If you want a primary OS replacement, you should probably look elsewhere.
