Kali Linux: Penetration Testing Redefined. The most advanced penetration testing distribution, ever.

Kali Linux is the new generation of the industry-leading BackTrack Linux penetration testing and security auditing Linux distribution.
Kali Linux is a complete re-build of BackTrack from the ground up, adhering completely to Debian development and FHS standards.

From what I read BackTrack Linux came as a live-cd only. Kali Linux is an installable full Linux system with long term support, that supports ARM (someone donated an ARM cluster to them)  and promises “seamless” upgrades between future major versions.
