vpower23 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I'm thinking of buying a Rubber Ducky to play with and to automate some repetitive crypto for my thesis. If i start op a laptop with Rubber Ducky plugged in can it be used to access the bios or a liveCD? For example can i put Ubuntu/windows on a SD and have Rubber ducky go through the install process automatically so i can automate installing a operating system and software. (Yes i know of VM's etc but i'm interested in making a self installing package) Sorry if this is a stupid question i'm unfamiliar with Rubber Ducky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oli Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Yes, it should work in startup / BIOS. Not really suitable for that kind of thing as it is just a "dumb" keyboard that fires off key presses at predefined intervals and gets zero feedback from the system. You will have trouble getting appropriate delays for stages of the install process. What I would do is use a Teensy/Arduino with tactile switches (buttons) and then have a semi-automatic process that proceeds to the subsequent stage when the button is pressed. The ducky cannot do this as it has no accessible GPIO pins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
