WarLinux or WarBSD is "main intended use is for systems administrators that want to audit and evaluate their wireless network installations. Should be handy for wardriving also." So if you don't have "wireless tool" installed on your Linux/BSD Laptop (I haven't try it on pc desk), you will be dissapointed or even you have Linux/BSD Laptop and you don't have "wireless tool working" as soon as you pop in WarLinux/WarBSD CD... it will be useless.
And please use it in positive way and be wise.. otherwise you will get in big trouble.

SirDice have good point there instronics.. try FreeBSD 4.8 stable and If you wanna try FreeBSD 5 , wait for the stable one (FreeBSD 5.1)

Cheerss
