The reason I didn’t stick with Backtrack 3 or 5 was because simple tasks were becoming difficult, such as running the voice chat program mumble. From there it was a simple install, and I also had an ethernet cable plugged in so I could include the optional internet updates during the install (updates not mandatory for install). Next I restarted the computer and pressed the ESC button right when it came to the Eee pc page, and selected boot from USB. Then I went into bios and told the Eee pc to boot from the USB drive, which was called something along the lines of “removable device” in the bios. I quickly realized that Kali was a better option in terms of being user friendly, and since I’m currently a noob to linux this suited me well.Īll I had to do to install Kali on the Eee pc was download the 32 bit version of Kali and mount it on the flashdrive using Win32diskimager. Using Win32diskimager (a free program for mounting iso files on flashdrives), I was easily able to mount backtrack 3 and 5 on the Eee pc. I went back to Walmart and got a 16gb flash drive, and sure enough it supported the FAT32 format. After messing around with every variation of Kali and Backtrack with the 64gb drive, I realized I could not accomplish my task, since the flashdrive only could go into exFAT format. I ran out to the store and grabbed a 64gb drive, only to find out that it didn’t support the FAT32 format (only flashdrives under 32gb support this). When I first began trying to install Kali and Backtrack onto my Eee pc, I only had a 2gb flash drive.
