Installing Kali Linux on Android via Termux














Installing Kali Linux on Android via Termux allows you to run a powerful penetration testing environment directly on your smartphone. Below is a step-by-step guide with commands and instructions.

---
Requirements
1.Termux: Install Termux from F-Droid (Play Store version is outdated).

2. VNC Viewer: Download from the Play Store for GUI access.

3. Stable internet connection.

4.At least 2GB of free storage.

---
Step-by-Step Installation
Update Termux and Install Dependencies.
Open Termux and run:
```
pkg update && pkg upgrade -y
pkg install wget tar proot -y
```

2. Download and Install Kali Linux 
Run the following commands to download and set up Kali Linux:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EXALAB/AnLinux-Resources/master/Scripts/Installer/Kali/kali.sh
bash kali.sh
``

After installation, enter the Kali shell using:
./start-kali.sh
```

3.Set Up XFCE Desktop Environment (Optional for GUI)
Inside the Kali shell, execute:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EXALAB/AnLinux-Resources/master/Scripts/DesktopEnvironment/Apt/Xfce4/de-apt-xfce4.sh
bash de-apt-xfce4.sh
```

Create a password when prompted, then configure VNC server:

vncserver -kill :1
rm -f ~/.vnc/xstartup
echo -e '#!/bin/bash\nxrdb $HOME/.Xresources\nstartxfce4 &' > ùmu⁷7⁷u


Tips
- Use `apt update && apt upgrade` regularly inside the Kali shell to keep pack
- For advanced GUI options, consider Termux-X11 instead of VNC Viewer

This method enables you to use Kali Linux for ethical hacking or security testing directly on your Android device[1][2][3].
