Windows USB Booting, Fon Hacking Illustrated, DimDim, DeskSpace and Portals
Booting Windows from a USB key using the Windows Automated Installation Kit. Unlocking the Fon and Installing Jasager -- Illustrated. Desktop and meeting collaboration using DimDim, the free open source online collaboration software. Turn your Windows desktop into a 3D spaces cube, and more!

Chris Gerling describes how we can use the Windows Automated Installation Kit, a free download from Microsoft, to build our own bootable Windows USB key. This tool is great for repairing borked PCs, more securely accessing a public computer, or installing Windows on optical drive-less ultra portables. Submitted by Moonlit - Show Notes.

Darren Kitchen brings La Fonera hacking with a geek friendly cartoon. This simple 20 step guide will have your Fon unlocked and running Jasager in no time! (Pineapples and battle armor optional) Step by Step guide

Christine Bourquin demos a nifty little Windows app that turns your desktop into four independent spaces on a 3D cube. Kinda like Compiz for Windows. Check out DeskSpace and it's free alternative.

Matt Lestock demos DimDim, a web-based collaboration platform that offers media-rich features. It's a open source "WebEx" alternative that'll blow your mind. Run it either hosted or install it on your own servers. SysAdmins look out, this little gem will be wowing your boss so sneak a little OSS in the corporation and save a little green too :)

We'll be at Day-Con on the 11th, VA Tech on the 17th, Phreaknic on the 25th and finally back in studio and probably HD the very next week. Stay tuned to Hak5.org for all the details and announcements or follow @hak5 on the twitter.

Oh yes, and thanks for all the help with the donating for Hak5 stickers! We're getting close to our goals. :)

Another great show!!


Dimdim has great possibilities. Be great to use it and moodle to start your own online school. My spare server will soon have centos running to test it out!!!

Since openwrt will run on x86, could you run jaseger on an old p2 hidden in a cardboard file storage box? If so, where might I get some info about doing this?

The best place to find more info on Jasager is on the official Jasager forum at http://hak5.org/forums/index.php?showforum=49

If the P2 hidden in your cardboard file storage box has a compatible wireless chipset I don't see why it wouldn't work.

I must say however, plastic pineapples > cardboard boxes ;)

Thanx, I will definately check out the link. You are right your pineapple rules, but my budget does not allow for any new toys for a while.

Nothing I have not seen before.

Possibly as a companion piece to the Jasager segments, I'd like to see a segment on how to protect yourself from such things. When I'm surfing mobile, I always encrypt and tunnel through a secure proxy server (and I trust the server because I own and admin it), but not everyone has that luxury.
