Better than Backtrack

Darksat

I have played with a lot of security tools on Linux and I am just wondering, is there any other distro out there as powerfull as Backtrack? The only other ones I like are PHLAX and Pentoo, but neither feel as smooth, or have the same tools.

Intel DQ35JO mobo ("Bearlake" Q35 Express) ??

Syzygies

I'm staring at an Intel Desktop Board Executive Series DQ35JO I picked up at Fry's for $130. It's a beauty of new components aimed squarely at the Core 2 Quad, but supporting many chips e. g. the Core 2 Duo E4300 Allendale 1.

Is there any difference? I have a new 80G Maxtor PATA 133 drive that will not work in an IDE caddy I have just bought. I have a new 80G Seagate Ultra drive that works fine in the caddy, just the same as all my old IDE drives.

Converting FAT32 to NTFS on a dual boot with 2HDD

ohbon

I have 1st drive XP FAT32 and 2nd drive Fedora 5. I would like to change FAT32 to NTFS. If I format C: from FAT32 to NTFS it says it will delete all data. With that will it delete the boot loader Grub from this hard disk and then I would not be able to dual boot to the 2nd drive which has Fedora 5?.
