There doesn't seem a lot of information about that distro and your laptop out there.

According to Backtrack's website, they offer both a LiveDVD and a thumbdrive option. I would download it and give it and test it. That should answer any question about compatability.

Your computer is big enough for any Linux distro. You do know that Backtrack is not an ordinary distro, but a rescue and forensif tool?
