  1. I'm suprised nobody posted this, after figuring it out I realize it's quite simple -

    Copy .disk, casper and preseed directories to your multipass

    add this to your menu.lst

    title BackTrack Text - Default Boot Text Mode
    
    kernel  /casper/vmlinuz file=/cdrom/preseed/custom.seed boot=casper  text splash vga=791--
    initrd /casper/initrd.gz

    works great for me

    Umm, check post number #4 ;)

  2. There are conflicting opinions about that software, but I would never use it. Seems to be very invasive program!

    If you wanna save few dollars and dont mind loosing privacy, go ahead and use it, but I would not recommend using it to anyone!

  3. Well, it seems BT5 still needs its iso to be extracted like BT4. Here is my GRUB2 menuentry for the BT5 Gnome 32bit:

    menuentry "BT5 GNOME 32bit" {

    linux /casper/vmlinuz boot=casper nopersistent rw gfxpayload=800x600 --

    initrd /casper/initrd.gz

    }

    Just extract the /casper to the root of your USB stick from ISO and thats it!

  4. Oh my! This might be the final push for me to get a Tablet :)

    Reason why I wanna run 32b version from Multiboot, is that not all computers have 64b CPUs, and I wanna be possible to run everything on anything :)

    Finally got BT5 installed on my trusty eeePC 901, time to start tweaking and testing...

  5. Topic says pretty much it all!

    Ive been trying to get BT5-GNOME-32.iso to boot from my Multipass USB key with no luck, so thought to ask some help :)

    I will give virtual cookie to the first person to post correct GRUB2 (or GRUB4DOS) entry...

  6. I ordered 2 of Teensys too with a friend of mine, so could split the postage :)

    That evil volcano ash seems to delay things though, dunno when it will arrive here...

    Got few ideas ready, just need the hardware to test em out. Also trying to find a place where I can order PCB for that extremely small version I posted about. No luck yet, everyplace just seems to have minimum of 1000 to order :D

  7. I tried to PM everyone who was selected but it turns out 80% of people on the forum have disabled their messengers so no dice. Not sure what to tell ya since I didn't collect email addresses and don't have time to cross reference 'em with the forums. Sorry to be vague but I'm busy moving. =/

    Just checked and it seems to be OFF on default, so no wonder so many have it disabled! :)

  8. So, I did ask this same question earlier in the "How To Become A Developer" -thread, but thought its worth of own thread. Im trying to find guides to make Teensy like board myself, as low cost possible.

    Then I came across this site, and was amazed!

    Stealth USB CapsLocker

    And whats best of it, its programmable! He also provides PDF that has tiles set of PCB schematics ready.

    Because Im not expert on this subject, Im trying to figure out the programmer adapter he used. If any of you have any info on that, please reply. Im still interested if any of you find other guides to produce such a device.

  9. Is there any other hardware I need besides a teensy and a yellow rubber toy to participate in the project? am I right in thinking that the only other special sauce is in the software, or I missing something. . .

    You will need a target :D

    So have a spare computer on your hand, that can be used to play with. Then your set!

    Im wondering if there is anyway to make these boards yourself? Been Googling, but my Google-fu powers aint strong enough today it seems. Id like to be able make a very simple board, that works as HID device and can be programmed through USB. As cheap as possible too :)

    Edit: I made a new thread about this question: DIY boards
