Creating BT3 DVD

[starlit]

Hi!

Has anyone tried to create a DVD from the USB/DVD copy?
I am wondering how this can be made.

Thanks!

[Been waiting for this for months .... finally see some light now Thanks!!]

Use the script make_iso.sh located in the BT3 directory to make an ISO. See "Adding modules to BackTrack in Linux" in the BackTrack Wiki for an example (bottom of that page).

Hi level,

Thanks for the tip.

Just need to replay the slax to BT3
Nowadays, DVDs are common. So I will probably play with the DVD version.

Edit the make_iso.bat under the BT3 folder. I have included a sample below.
############################

BT3\tools\WIN\mkisofs.exe @BT3\tools\WIN\config -o "%1" -A "%CDLABEL%" -V "%CDLABEL%" .

################################


Run the batch file with the destination ISO file name and that should do it.

Have fun! I am going to try burn it to my mini DVD now

i read that guide but i still dont get it tho. its shown how to do it if u already in bt. Im in windows. How do i load all those files? do i run that in dos or what? im so lost right now. I never had problems booting from iso using vmware. But this is different... its just bunch of files. I dont get it how can i create a bootable .iso. Anyone? i kno i sound mad lame but i tried even makin bootable iso with nero. Seemed fine.. but when i loaded that iso in vmware got error... cannot boot cd code 5 or something like that. Its so frustrating :|

edit: finally got it ... was using make_iso.bat and pressing enter in cmd instead of make_iso.bat c:\bt.iso ...

(He was doing that under windows - .BAT are Windows Batch files, the equivalent of a Linux .BIN file)

Its really a good idea. Now I can edit my preference and make the iso when I want to. And its convenient to boot from a USB pendrive.

Wonderful!

Whats wrong with my iso bat file??Cannot get iso file where should i put the destination where the iso will be made in iso.bat file this is under win..This is what i have
A parameter is required - target ISO file.
Example: "C:\Users\Mårten\Desktop\bt3b141207\BT3\make_iso.b at" c:\bt3.iso
Where should i put in the C:\Users\Mårten\Desktop\bt3b141207\BT3\make_iso.ba t" c:\bt3.iso

cd users\Mårten\Desktop\bt3b141207\BT3\make_iso.bat c:\bt3.iso

I think i am to stupid, or tired...

[falken00]

when i run the make iso bat i get this message
A parameter is required - target ISO file.
Example: "c:\Users\Mårten\Desktop\bt3b141207\BT3\make_iso.b at" c:\target.iso
OK where to put this info in the bat file or where???
