Kali linux on ARM

[Machupo]

Anyone had success with Kali Linux on a Nexus device? I've tried a number of different ways to attempt install; automatic (installer), manual, manual with lower versions, sideload, etc...

Just want a great netpen device that I can tote around to various jobs.... grrr!


always end up with bootloops (typically at app optimizing) or straight hangs (at "google"). I go through the whole process to get stock roms loaded, rooted, unlocked bootloader, twrp/supersu/busybox, fresh fastboot image of kali, etc.

You'd have better luck with tools that run on android. Just try to find equilivent to kali tools. Since you have a nexus device a lot of tools are supported. Some faves to get you started:

bcmon
reaver
zanti

I've never tried installing Kali on my own but I use a PwnPad when I need a portable pen-testing suite:

Pricey but works well.

Or, use the free downloadable Pwn Phone (Nexus 5) or Pwn Pad (Nexus 7) 2014 Community Editions.

Unfortunately, the pwnpad looks to be rather specific about its hardware; I still love my manta

Will definitely check out some of those equivalents, thanks
