I’ve been playing around with this

And trying to get it to work with Backtrack (wifi security + a whole lot more) live USB.

The problem is that BT4 doesn’t come with the driver built in - i.e. you plug it in, and dmesg gives you a:

usb 4-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 8
usb 4-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

Now the problem is that once you’ve done this it doesn’t add in another ifconfig automagically for you. For example the laptop that I’m using (dell e4200.. meh) has an intel wifi nic, wlan0. Now I want this guy to be rausb0 but modprobing it doesn’t exactly work.

We’ll update this later, this post is mainly to test out my post by email
