First of all: This forum is about Ubuntu. Questions about other Linux distributions such as BackTrack should be posted on Unix&Linux StackExchange forum. Anyway, BackTrack is old and deprecated. Use Kali Linux instead of it!

But although I can provide you some help here. The ifconfig does not show any wireless device! It only shows eth0 which is a wired connection and lo which is the local loopback interface. Therefore you also can not detect any devices with aircrack. As you run BackTrack inside a VM, I think the problem is how your VirtualBox(?) bridges the physical wifi adapter to your VM.
But unfortunately I don't know about how this would get virtualized, so giving you this hint is all I can do.
I hope it helped you anyway. Greetings!
