Frostykev Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Do you think backtrack 5 would run on an ARM netbook like one of these? http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Android-2-2-Mini-Netbook-Notebook-Laptop-709A-4GB-HD-800Mhz-32-Bit-Red-/330691577343?pt=Laptops_Nov05&hash=item4cfec105ff#ht_4241wt_1139 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be able to run BT5R1 live via a bootable usb device. The 256mb RAM is my only concern about running it live. If you plan to install it you will need a netbook with at least an 8GB storage device. Backtrack 5 takes over 6GB of space when installed. I installed it on an ASUS Eee PC 4G Surf (upgaded to 2GB RAM and 32GB SSD). That specific netbook should easily be able to run older versions of Backtack.

I have bt5 running on a netbook and i have some programs that will just bring the netbook to a halt. Also some GUI programs wont fit on the screen so the is no way to view the bottom of the GUI program or use it through the GUI. Also after looking at the specs it only has a 4g drive on it. and 256 ram. so i donthing it would work.
