or “VirtualBox + Tor + Backtrack” aka “How to become (almost?) invisible” from rootd@mmit I plan to use the tor_vm.iso method for stealth, and leave my Debian VB as another playground… tor there if I ever need it. I remember trying this a while ago, and also remember why I don’t use it… I can’t get it to work 🙂 It hangs while trying to bootstrap at 5%… although now…

I’ve not been using the processing power of my 8 core PC, so decided to see what it could do this afternoon. I’ve installed VirtualBox direct from Synaptic Manager, and have created Virtual boxes for Debian and Windows 7.
