I can make an ' easy BT5 ' !

but as "Qole" said , that pointless because BT5 is a ubuntu-based so its very easy to install them in maemo ,

also try to use the offensive security repo

regards

One word: qchroot (found in the easy-chroot package)

Go down that loop device rabbit hole and all your prayers will be answered. First, of course, create a proper image with some room to grow.

And yes, qole is a god.

so looking forward to someone putting up a detailed explanation of how to boot backtrack from sd, doesnt look very promising at the mo.

Not real fast, even if overclocked. Will have a look tomorrow how to get it up in maemo.

Great. The card I ordered came in today.
They sent me an SD card instead of a MicroSD card.

What shouldve been over night express post is going to turn into a week.

Side note: I strongly encourage everyone to repartition internal eMMC by using method #8 in wiki.

I was amongst few first "big" things that i did with my N900 (first week of having it, if i remember correctly), and that was my first linux device - Yea, despite my love to open source idea & practice, i wasn't involved in linux, cause i never was motivated enough to start learning it. shame on me. Sure, i was able to do some thing on it, but i was FAR away from even linux power user, not to mention gurus.

So, what i want to say by this post is that reformatting using backupmenu + aptosid (or whatever you want) on virtual machine/ live Cd / whatever again is easy simple and straightforward. You can also delete/resize swap partition if You use swap on microSD and do similiar things in one run.

I created other partitions - one for Easy debian (NOT as image file on partition, extracted) and another for nitdroid - obviously everything is running much faster.

So, dedicated partition for backtrack would also improve performance. Also, i agree with qole that there is no need for this in fact - you can built Your own in ED - but the same apply for x86 version of backtrack, still many people - including me - was using it for some time, cause it packs many things and save work for You. Even Easy debian incorporate some cool aps in base image - GIMP etc. no matter than user can install it, if he want ;) So pentests aren't as useless as some thought.

another thing - i strongly DISCOURAGE regular users from running 32GB rotfs. At least whole topic about this - it is mainly targeted at developers who wan't to test their aplications without optifing first, and if You use 32GB rotfs in daily basics, you will encounter big performance drop.

But how to use these partitions? Install the easy debian chroot and then boot into easy debian or boot maemo and use easy debian chroot as partition or bootable image?
