Hi all…
I just installed VMware workstation and run Backtrack 3 as a linux virtual machine.
My problem is loading the linux operating system up with “other linux 2.6.x kernell” as a setting, and starting the backtrack 3 virtual machine, everything is fine up to this point.
Once in Backtrack 3, when i run wireless assistant it comes up with
Error- wireless assistant
No usable wireless devices found.
wireless assistant will now quit.
Also when in the shell-konsole when typing at bt – # “airomn-ng” there is no:
Interface Chipset Driver
that comoes up at all. so from here on there is no progress to wep penetration and i can not get past this point.
hope i have explained clearly and someone can help me????? thank you

your physical network maybe get connection through wireless & VMWare adapters convert it to Ethernet adpater. As far as I know, VMware doesn’t attempt to virtualize wireless hardware ( except usb wireless ) and even if it did, most of the wireless must tested card list or you can find special drivers that closer to the hardware.
if you use usb wireless just click on removabledevices–>usbdevices and check your network card.
