Kali Linux on a Khadas VIM

Electr1 · July 26, 2020, 3:08am

Hi guys !, after much time I have been successfully been able to get Kali Linux running on a VIM,
my specific device was a VIM3…, It is basically the end result of a new Debian to Kali linux conversion script i have been working on…

Here are some screenshots of the final conversion:

There some doohickeys I still have to fix,
like, openCL needs recomplation to have Hashcat and other hardware compute tasks to work
(will be done in the script itself)

please note the WiFi-chipset may not be compatible for sniffing operations and promiscous mode…

Don’t compare it to the desktop version of Kali-Linux, unlike that, the version of Kali for SBC’s and ARM devices won’t have the same setup, it is comparable to the version of Kali-linux for RPi’s

I will soon give the links to the script as well as my beta-snapshot after I am done with some testing…

please note that Kali-Linux is a software as is, any abuse to public and gov't property Induced because of it, is a criminal activity, and may land you in jail. In any case I am not responsible for the corruption of data, damage to property, bricked devices or the advent of creation of a Thermonuclear war induced due to the usage of this software

with this much power comes great responsibility, so use it wisely, and don’t get a lawsuit and arrest warrant with your name…

so anyways…
Hasta lasagna, don’t get any on ya.

I have updated the conversion script,

github.com

ZephyrLabs/PyTools/blob/master/Kali2ools.sh

#!/bin/bash 

### v1.1 ###

### Check user is root ###
if (( $EUID != 0 )); then
  echo "Please run as root"
  exit
fi

echo "Initializing the conversion, This might take a while... till then sit back and relax, we have you covered :)"

### Install needed packages ###
apt-get update
apt-get install -y dirmngr

### Add the Kali Linux GPG keys to aptitude ###
apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys ED444FF07D8D0BF6

### Replace the Debian repos with Kali repos ###

This file has been truncated. show original

install with:

git clone https://github.com/ZephyrLabs/PyTools/blob/master/Kali2ools.sh
./Kali2ools.sh

you might get some Yes or no questions while converting, just select the recommended options, and enable all the services that might start…

will this work with the vim4?

It might, however, you might also have to work on the kernel config for packet capturing.

I haven’t tested it, but it should work.
