BackTrack is the most Top rated linux live distribution focused on penetration testing. The long-awaited (~5 months) tool has reached it’s Version 2.0 final stage. There are a lot of changes since the last Version as mentioned on the Changelog. To name just a few :

•  

We included a bunch of new drivers into the latest release and where able to make the desired packet injection functionalities to a wider audience.

By supporting the new ALFA USB hi-power devices there is now a great USB wireless dongle available which allows us to connect an external antenna and use BackTrack to attack even on my Intel Macbook or VMware

Even broadcom 43xx based cards should be able to inject - a bit sloppy but should work.

The following drivers are now on our CD:

• madwifi-ng (Patched for Injection)
• hostap (Patched for Injection)
• prism54 (Patched for Injection)
• bcm43xx (Patched for Injection)
• rtl8180 (Patched for Injection)
