In this article we will describe how we can make a USB Bootable drive for Backtrack 4 Linux

distribution. The new release is based on Debian/Ubuntu and not on Slackware as it was used to be in

earlier versions (Backtrack 3 and below).

In this article the UNetbootin Windows version tool has been used to demonstrate the above scenario.

Minimum USB Drive capacity 1 GB

Format the USB to FAT32

2. Download UNetbootin to make our usb bootable

3. Run Unetbootin and select bt4-beta.iso for diskimage

4. Select USB Drive letter and click on OK to start making a bootable usb drive

After the creation process finishes restart your machine and boot from the new usb bootable drive

created and enjoy Backtrack 4 Beta on your system.
