Re: Installing Nessus on Backtrack 3

Hi !

You need to tgz2lzm first in order to create lzm boot loadable module from
tgz package. After that you need to place it under BT3/modules directory.
If you are using ISO version you need to create new iso file with the new lzm
module. After that nessus package will be loaded at BT start.

I prefer USB version it's simpler to modd. With vmware you can install BT3 on
you virtual drive and use it just like USB version.

Alex
