Thanks for your video.

Maybe you want to add another modification.

I have edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst so that I have 1024x768 in console mode with splash image. I think it's better for user who wants to use the console instead of X, and see more on their display.

Thanks for pointing this out!
I've now added it to my own BT install and will do it for the next "How to install backtrack".
*Think I will skip BT4 R1 - I believe its the same as the BT 4 final. Maybe BT5?*
