A USB thumbdrive for the install - minimum capacity 16GB.During the install process below there is a warning about indicating where you want the boot loader to be installed. WARNING: Before you start, please be aware that you can cause the system you are using to build this with to not boot correctly. Finally, a couple of posts from the Ubuntu Community Documentation site were instrumental in getting this working. I will be making a PDF available in the near future.Īs in all my how-tos, user entered text is bold and comments are preceded by a # sign and generally not part of the output of a command.
I strongly recommend you read through this guide at least once before starting. I can be reached via the contact form on the 'About' page of this website or via the comments below. Please let me know if I missed anything or you have any questions. This is a fairly involved process, but I have done my best to document each detail. We use LVM and the native encryption routines included in Ubuntu to encrypt all partitions except for a small boot partition that never contains any data. I put quotes around full in the title because technically the whole disk isn't encrypted.
However, we still need to install hashalot, so it doesn't save us a step. That means we no longer have to use apt-get to install it. They were very minor and using the previous method still works. UPDATE (): The how-to has been updated to reflect changes for Backtrack R2. Please let me know if this turns out to not be the case. UPDATE (): I have reports that the howto works fine with Backtrack 5 R3.
