Install Backtrack 3 to EEE PC internal drive
4GB Version only (this procedure will not work on 2GB EeePC)
First download and burn a copy of Backtrack 3 USB version or Backtrack 3 CD version.
Boot from Live CD & start a new konsole.
Use the mount command to show mounted drives and locate your SSD partitions, (Mine are hdc1,hdc2 & hdc3)
Unmount all the drives found in the previous step using
umount /mnt/hdc3/
We now need to create 3 partitions, 1st at 64meg, 2nd at 250meg and the 3rd will fill the remainder of the drive.
fdisk /dev/hdc
Refer to tutorials available on the net or use fdisk --h for help in order to create 3 partitions.
Once the partitions have been created set the swap partition (2 in my case) using
t
and entering the input type as 82
write changes using w
If you get any warning or errors at this point then reboot and continue from here. Next commands are
mmke2fs /dev/hdc1
mkswap /dev/hdc2
swapon /dev/hdc2
mkreiserfs /dev/hdc3
