As promised, I have released a new version of Bauer-Puntu Linux due to it’s surprising popularity! For instance, just last month Bauer-Puntu 10.04 was downloaded over 6,000 times! That is 5,999 times more than I ever thought. Who knew that it would be so popular?
I think the popularity really stems from my Bauer-Power video where I show people how easy it is to reset or blank local administrator passwords using Bauer-Puntu and CHNTPW. I also did another video showing how easy it is to hack WEP keys using Grim Wepa and Bauer-Puntu. If you are wondering, yes both of those packages are in the new release!
I did something a little different with this version. I tried it in the past, but it was too hard to do before. This time I got things figured out. I built this distro using the Ubuntu Minimal CD, so I was able to keep a whole lot of bloat off the system. What does this mean? It means a faster running operating system than the standard Ubuntu distro, as well as a faster install time! Still though, even with using the Ubuntu Minimal CD, I wasn’t able to keep this thing under 1GB, so it still has to run on a DVD or at least a 2GB USB Thumb drive.
Speaking of USB Thumb drives, I decided not to make a USB image this time as too many people had problems with it last time. I think it is best to download the ISO and write it to USB following the instructions in step two here: (Ubuntu USB Instructions)
Here is a short list of programs I included in this distro:
- GParted - Disk Partitioner
- PartImage - Disk Cloning
- CHNTPW - Windows Password Cracker
- Wipe - Secure File Deletion
- TestDisk - File Recovery
- ClamTK - Antivirus
- GrimWepa - GUI WEP/WPA Cracker using Aircrack-ng backend (Booya!)
- Cairo Dock - Mac OSX like dock
- VirtualBox - Free Virtualization Software
- Adobe Flash
- Java
I also added the following by request:
- SET – Social Engineer Toolkit – Plus I bookmarked the tutorials in the browser ;-P
- Metasploit Framework 3.5.0
- CheckGmail
- Ubuntu Tweak
- Parcellite
- Yarssr
Finally I installed Google Chrome as the default browser this time. Lately I have just found Firefox to be too resource intensive, and thought I would give Chrome another go. I’m sure there are some other apps that I put on there, but it’s escaping me at the moment. I guess you will just have to download it to see!

Okay, I know you want the goods. Here are the download links. If you want to use the Torrent method, I would only ask that you seed it for at least 24 hours after downloading it to help me out!
Also, it’s not easy to make this distro every 6 months. It takes a lot of time and effort away from my friends and family. I would appreciate it a great deal if you could donate some money to the cause.
