install Backtrack 4

CARA 1

Backtrack 4 does not contain any installer yet thus we wrote this step by step guide based on muts cookbook on how to install Backtrack 4 on our hard disk drive.

Step 1 – Creating the partitions

First we will need to create three partitions to be able to install backtrack on our hard disk drive. We will need boot, swap and root partitions to be created. (We can still create 2 partitions and install the boot inside the root partition)

After we create the three partitions we need to change the type of partition 2 to swap and activate the boot partition, then write the changes

Command (m for help): t
Partition number (1-4): 2
Hex code (type L to list codes): 82
Changed system type of partition 2 to 82 (Linux swap / Solaris)
Command (m for help): a
Partition number (1-4): 1
Command (m for help): w
The partition table has been altered!
Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.
Syncing disks.
root@bt:~#

Step 2 – Format the file systems
We format our file system with mkreiserfs for root partition, ext2 for boot and swap for the swap partition.

Step 3 – Mount and Copy Directories

After we had prepare the file systems its time to copy over the backtrack files to our hard drive and configure it to run the backtrack on boot.

NOTE: The copy operation will take some time so be patient until it finish

Step 4 – Configure Bootloader

We will need to configure /etc/lilo.conf and define the boot and root partition so we will be able to boot into backtrack. In case we do not correctly define the root partition we will get an error “Kernel panic: no init found”.

Edit /etc/fstab and append the following lines:

/dev/sda3 / reiserfs defaults 0 0 # AutoUpdate
/dev/sda2 none swap sw 0 0

Execute lilo -v and reboot

CARA 2

pertama masukkan CD Backtrack lalu boot CD.

Setelah masuk pilih menu yang pertama, kedua, atau mana aja yg bisa.
maka akan keluar jendela konsole / terminal, ketikkan startx agar keluar jendela GUI.
di desktop ada file install.h, silahkan anda klik 2x, lalu continue away. apabila cara tersebut tidak bisa, bukalah terminal dan ketikkan sh ./install.sh
seperti saat menginstall linux lainnya, akan muncul seperti gambar ini.

setelah selesai menginstall backtrack 4 Final, sistem akan otomatis restart. pada saat masuk berbeda dengan ubuntu yang mempunyai login windows. di backtrack 4 Final anda masuk melalui terminal. untuk user ketikkan root, dan passwordnya toor
