This is made to be a quick tutorial for x86 architecture and you should have root permissions. If this does not work please refer to http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Linux/Ubuntu for more detailed instructions for Arduino on Ubuntu(which is what BackTrack is based on).
First thing you should do is plug in your Arduino board to the BackTrack5 machine(assuming via USB) and type:
#modprobe ftdi_sio
#dmesg
in a console. You should see something like this in the dmesg output.
[91296.051432] usb 5-1: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0
If not it is likely you need to recompile your kernel to include this support. Most likely it is installed as a module so the modprobe command would have enabled it. Next we will go ahead and grab the debian packages needed:
#mkdir /tmp/arduino
#cd /tmp/arduino
#wget http://mirror.pnl.gov/ubuntu//pool/universe/r/rxtx/librxtx-java_2.2pre2-3~maverick1_i386.deb
#wget http://mirror.pnl.gov/ubuntu//pool/universe/a/arduino/arduino-core_0022+dfsg-1~maverick1_all.deb
#wget http://mirror.pnl.gov/ubuntu//pool/universe/a/arduino/arduino_0022+dfsg-1~maverick1_all.deb
Now we are ready to install everything to the system! First use apt to install avrdude, which is the microcontroller programmer. Then just use dpkg -i to install the .deb's
#apt-get install avrdude
#apt-get install gcc-avr
#apt-get binutils-avr
#apt-get install avr-libc
#dpkg -i *.deb
If it complains about dependency problems, then just run:
#apt-get -f install
And dpkg one more time
#dpkg -i *.dep
If you didn't get any errors you should be able to run "arduino" in a terminal, which will bring up the IDE. I suggest opening up the example blink program and changing the delay() values to something fast(200 will work) and uploading it to the board. Pin 13 gives warning blinks so this will verify everything is working. Remember to press the reset button while uploading and change the settings in the sketch program to match what board you have. If anyone does any network or hacking related arduino projects I would love to hear from you. Check us out on efnet IRC@ #priv.
