Sorry it took so long, but it is finally out! The latest and quite possibly the LAST edition of Bauer-Puntu linux available. I say the last because it is rather a pain in the arse to produce this. Not to mention my wife hates when I work on projects like this because it takes my time away from the family.
I am pretty excited about this release though. I have been playing with it for the last few days. I installed mine with the ext4 format, and I am simply loving the performance, and fast boot times!
Anyway, enough about that! So what is new in the version? Of course you have all the awesomeness from the latest Ubuntu release including:
- GNOME 2.26Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackelope
- X.Org server 1.6
- Wacom tablet hotplugging
- New style for notifications
- Boot performance
- Linux kernel 2.6.28
- Ext4 filesystem support
With that I have pre-installed some really cool hacking, and security tools. My old security teacher in College once said my distro didn’t have enough security tools. This time I went ahead and put a few more on there. Some of the tools I pre-installed are:
- kismet
- aircrack-ng
- Metasploit Framework 3.2
- Wireshark
- packETH
- SQLNinja
- Fast-Track
- ettercap-ng
- nmap
- nessus
- netcat
- hping2
- John The Ripper
- dsniff
- scapy
- p0f
- ntop
- ike-scan
I think that is it. There may be one or two that I am missing (It was late when I was installing them all).
Besides the security tools, I have also pre-installed Adobe Flash, and Adobe Air. With Adobe Air, I have also Pre-installed the Twhirl Twitter client for you Twitter freaks like me!
Since I packed in all of the extra tools, I tried my damnedest to make it fit on a CD. Well, I just couldn’t do it. I even uninstalled all of the games, and office programs (You will have to re-install those later). With everything that is on it, the Live iso is just over 700MB. Because of that I thought the best thing to do would be to make a Live USB image available, so that is what I did. You can still download the iso if you want to install Bauer-Puntu in VMWare or something, but if you are just using it as a Live CD, then it is best to put on a USB stick anyway for mobility.
You can download the iso here: (Bauer-Puntu 9.04 ISO)
You can download the USB img here: (Bauer-Puntu 9.04 USB)
To install the USB image, follow the instructions for installing the Ubuntu NBR release to USB here: (NBR to USB)
NOTE: The Win32 Disk Imager utility may cause the Live USB not to login. I recommend using the flashnul command line utility instead if you are using Windows to make your bootable live USB stick.
Of course all of this comes without the shit brown that plagues Ubuntu!
Here are the screen shots!

Like I said above. This most likely will be my last release. That is, unless there is a high demand for it. The last release was downloaded a few thousand times, so who knows. Maybe there will be demand.
If you use, or have used Bauer-Puntu in the past, let me know how you like it. I want your feedback and suggestions as well. Hit me up in the comments!
