I'm only saying I think you could install all the software. Backtrack is a specialised distro. They've conveniently put all that stuff together, but the same software is available to install on any distro.

Are you recommending Mint or was that just any example? In any case I appreciate your advice... a lot of people shy away from discussions that refer to pen testing despite the fact it is an essential field of study. Z/Z

I've never tried Mint, but read a lot of good things about it as an easy distro that's more reliable than Ubuntu. And it would be better as an all-round distro than Backtrack, definitely.
