1 Adding modules to BackTrack

Adding modules to BackTrack

One of BackTracks' most appealing features is it's modularity. As an end user, you can add your own modules scripts and tools to the livecd.

Setting up the "sources"

Create a temporary install directory in /tmp

bt tmp # mkdir /tmp/INSTALL

If you have an ISO, mount it and copy over the /boot and /BT directories.

bt tmp # mkdir /mnt/iso
bt tmp # mount -o loop -t iso9660 /tmp/bt2final.iso /mnt/iso
bt tmp # cp -rf /mnt/iso/* /tmp/INSTALL/

Copy over the new modules

Create and add your module to the BT/modules directory

bt tmp # cp /tmp/module.lzm /tmp/INSTALL/BT/modules/

Recreate your Modified BackTrack ISO

Recreate the iso file

bt tmp # cd INSTALL/BT/
bt BT # ./make_iso.sh
Target ISO file name [ Hit enter for ../../BT.iso ]: /tmp/bt2final-mod.iso
