TrueCrypt v4.3a - BackTrack.v2.0final - Modul

[S3M73X]

TrueCrypt will be official included in BT.v3 but i will not wait until it's public...

Since i use TrueCrypt a lot because i don't want ppl to get the content of my USB-Stick and so on i created a module you can use if you want to.
There is allready a TrueCrypt-Module for Backtrack made by some Google-Admin (which name i forgot) but those will only work for the beta of backtrack... also those .mo from SLAX5 will probably not work as clean/stable as my module since its compiled on BT2final itself.... so you may decide what you choose. ;)

How i did:

- downloaded truecrypt-source from truecrypt.org into /tmp
- executed install.sh
- rewrote build.sh so it makes a install to a clean new dir in /tmp/foo
- dir2lzm /tmp/foo /tmp/truecrypt-4.3a_BT2final_i386.lzm
- uselivemod tmp
- executed install.sh
- rewrote build.sh so it makes a install to a clean new dir in /tmp/foo
- dir2lzm /tmp/foo truecrypt-4.3a_BT2final_i386.lzm
- depmod -a
- ready


You can easyli use this shellscript to install TrueCrypt on your box.
insttc.sh

#!/bin/sh
#5M7X.2007
#insttc.sh
#script to get and install the truecrypt.v4.3a on backtrack.v2.0-final
#you have to add the http in front of the url because i am not allowed
#to post urls in here ;-D (SM7X == bad spammer)==1
wget 5m7x.extra.hu/files/BT2_modules/truecrypt-4.3a_BT2final_i386.lzm
uselivemod truecrypt-4.3a_BT2final_i386.lzm
depmod -a
echo finnished install... truecrypt should now work well

From wich source did you get this info ?

thx anyway for the module...even if maybe there will be no compatibility with bt3...i hope a kernel upgrade .......

@shamanvirtuel
I'm not 100% sure but i guess it was sleepless who gave me that info?

Why shouldn't it work for BT3? Should be possible to add the necessary kernel-modifications and reinclude that in a modded live-CD.
I will surely work on that if the developers dont do. ;)
