The latest release of everyone’s favorite LiveCD distribution for security has been released. After 5 months in beta phase, BackTrack 2.0 Stable is available to the public for downloading. Some of the new stuff include an updated kernel (2.6.18-rc5), updated tools, PXE network boot, John MPI Instant Cluster for parallel-processing password cracking, and the possibility to save the changes back to the CD. It also includes support for more wireless cards. According to the authors themselves:
It’s taken us almost 5 months to pull ourselves out of the beta stage. Every time we thought we were done, a new idea or improvement would surface, and we just *had* to implement it. Many features were added, and many of the old (yet persistent) bugs were fixed. We honestly believe that BackTrack v 2.0 Final is the leanest, mind blowing and sexiest version to come out and hope that you enjoy using it as much as we did making it.
