okay, i can boot plenty of linux distrubtions fine from my flash drive, but backtrack 3 i dont know how.

basically, i downloaded the .iso of backtrack 3, mounted it, and place the boot and backtrack files inside my flashdrive.

then i went into boot, ran the bootinst.bat file and turned it said boot was successful.

then i restarted computer, went to the f12 boot menu, selected usb drive, and instead of booting to the splash screen, it said an error and could not find kernal image: linux.

what am i doing wrong?
