Bug Description

 I boot up my backtrack linux 5 r3 livecd using editing the grub's menu.lst like that:

title BackTrack5 Text - Default Boot Text Mode
  root (hd0,0)
  kernel /casper/vmlinuz file=/cdrom/preseed/custom.seed boot=casper text splash vga=791--
  initrd /casper/initrd.gz
  boot

It can boot up smoothly ,I learnned from google that before install the system one must umount the media . I use the cmd like this :

  sudo umount -l /cdrom

after I typed the cmd ,I began my installation ,I have gave the backtrack linux enough disk space ,200Mb for /boot , more than 50Gb for / , and 1.5 Gb for swap.

but why can't I upload some pictures and files that are related to the bugs ,the system tells me to upload some accessory .

       Thanks for your timely email ,I'm so grateful for your work , I know
Linux will become more and more popular by the great work you do !

       I have guessed you'll say that's backtrack ,not ubuntu ,but
backtrack is based on ubuntu 10.10LTS , but it is the bug told me to
contact with the website of yours , and on the other side , GNUN/linux is
a big family,isn't it ? But could you help me to solve this problem ,I‘m
Chinese ,please forgave my so badly English ,I start learn Linux for not so
long a time .I learned that the bug reporting in our country is not so
proactive
,I can't change others ,but I can improve myself .I really hope you can
help me 。I'll upload the accessories which are related to the bug。hope you
can help me。[?]

BackTrack uses modified repositories. While they may be based off of Ubuntu, that does not mean that Ubuntu provides bugfixes to BackTrack's software.

Given this, the bug is invalid for Ubuntu/ubuquity. Any bugs in BackTrack Linux need to be filed in the correct location (which is on backtrack's support area), and handled by their support team.
