Backtrack - Prepare the distribution

Now that we have our beautiful Linux distribution let's go. To do this simply insert the drive, DVD or USB, and select from Bios Our computer, the primary boot. This will be the main screen Backtrack 5, so as we start from photo: BackTrack Text - Text Default Boot Mode (start Backtrack default text mode). Booted, you will be asked how to start the distro, there must startx write the string followed by pressing Enter. We wait a few more seconds and we will face the distribution, based on computer security, computing worldwide!

Beautiful interface, right? ;) Yeah I know it is wonderful. Leaving out these details, we immediately set our distribution so as to make it to be operational immediately. As a first step we will configure the keyboard in Italian, since we will work hard with the Bash shell. The process is simple, it must go to

Programs that require this type of configuration are many, remember Aircrack-ng, which unfortunately in this ebook will not speak, but There will be useful when we go to work with the Wireshark packet sniffer. To activate this mode, type a simple little string in our dear

• Shell: airmon-ng start network-name

Usually, the network name is wlan0 if we have a collegamente via wi-fi or if eth0 Lan, but still viewable via the ifconfig command. These two configurations are the most important from the point of view usability of the distribution, but of course you can change all the rest, as the system language, time, mouse, and GUI whatever.
