  1. Go to: http://www.kde-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=61

  2. Download any .tar.gz format "bootsplash" you want (to a folder you'll remember).

  3. Go to your desktop manager theme installer, for most popular distros, it's under: START –> Control Panel –> System Administration –> KDM Theme Manager. But, I believe for BackTrack 2 it's located under: Using Settings –> Appearance and Themes –> Theme Manager. This'll bring you to the KDE Control Module. If possible switch to "Administrator Mode" and type in your ROOT password, otherwise:

  4. Click on "Install New Theme" and locate your downloaded theme.

  5. SELECT it, and hit APPLY. Log-Out, and voila!

But, why are you trying to change the bootsplash for BackTrack2, it's more of a LiveCD than a practical desktop distro…? So, changing it for a LiveCD is senseless, since all is loaded on RAM.
