It's not possible to

    
with you while you
are traveling or 

somewhere out.
That is why hackers
use portable
gadgets as much as
possible. For
example Raspberry
Pi. But is Raspberry
Pi really a portable
hacking device that
makes you
comfortable in
public? No. In this
case, we can use
our Android phone! 

The best way to

make your Android
smartphone a
portable hacking
device is by
installing Hackers
paradise, Kali Linux
OS. Kali Linux is the
most popular Linux
OS used for hacking
and pen-testing. 

What is the problem

install Kali Linux on
Android? 

If your phone is
rooted, you can
install Kali
Nethunter or Linux
Deploy to take Kali
Linux in use but if
your phone is not
rooted then there
are not so many
options available for
you. You can use a
PC Emulator but it is
very slow and takes
very large resources
which affect your
phone's
performance. 

But here we will use

an easy way to
install and use Kali
Linux or other
Distros smoothly
and easily without
rooting your phone.

Let's take a look at


Requirements
we need to
satisfy
To install Kali Linux
we need three
applications
installed on our
Android phone. All
the applications are
available in the
Google play store.
These tools are
completely safe and
they don't harm your
phone's security.

#1. Termux

#2. VNC viewer

    
Download all three
apps from the Play 

store and proceed

to the next step.

Installing Kali
Linux on
Android
without root
Here we are going
to show the way to
install both the CLI
and GUI version of
Kali Linux. Some
people need a way
of using Kali Linux
only to make their
work done. they
don't need styles.
But some people
like GUI version as
they don't like typing
the same command
lines over and over
again. It is on you,
what version you
want to install.
    

Installing CLI

version of Kali

Linux 

#1. Open up the

ANLinux application
Dashboard and click
on the 'CHOOSE'
button and select
the Distribution you
want to install.
Obviously 'Kali'.
#2. Now you will get
the command lines
to install Kali Linux
and its necessary
packages. Copy the
codes by clicking on
'COPY'
#3. Click on
'LAUNCH' and it will
open up the termux
    
commands and run
them. 

These steps will

download and
install all the
necessary packages
and tools to run Kali
Linux smoothly.
Also, it will
download and
execute a script
automatically which
will create a Debian
environment.

Now it will
download and
install file systems
and core files for
Kali Linux in a
compressed format
and it will also set
the repository to
download tools. You
    
version. You have to
download them 

separately
according to your
needs.

Wait for
decompressing the
file and setting up.
And now you can
launch Kali Linux
with the command-

./start-kali.sh
    
in PC. But before
installing any tool, 

update it by the
command- apt
update.

Installing the GUI

version of Kali

Linux

#1. To install the

GUI version, again
open up the
ANLinux application
and pull up the slide
from the left and
select 'Desktop
Environment'.
#2. Now click on
'CHOOSE' and select
the Kali.
#3. Click on
'CHOOSE' to select
the Desktop
environment we
need to install Kali
Linux GUI version.
Select the
recommended
xfce4.
#4. Click on 'COPY'
    
to install the
packages and tools 

for Kali GUI.

#5. Click on
'LAUNCH' to launch
the termux
application. Before
pasting the
commands you
need to run the
./start-kali.sh
command and
then paste the
copied commands
and run them.

These steps will

install and execute a
script to install Kali
Linux. Also, the
xfce4 Desktop
environment and
VNC server will be
installed and
configured
    
approx 200 MB of
data and will use 

713 MB of your disk

space. This process
will take some time.
It will depend on the
phone's
performance and
internet speed Stay
with patience.

Now you need to set

up the Keyboard
layout, VNC server
password. These
types of settings
you have to do.
Setup the password
of the VNC server
and the option
'would you like to
enter a view-only
password' select
No.
    
Linux GUI using the
VNC viewer 

application.

Configuring
VNC Viewer

Open up the VNC

Viewer app and
click on that '+'
button and set up a
new connection
with address
'localhost:1' and
name whatever you
want. 
    
password you've set
up for VNC viewer 

before and click on

'continue'. And you
are ready to go!

Bonus tip: In the

field of Ethical
hacking when you
will go further with
your android
smartphone, at a
certain point you
will have to root
your smartphone to
unlock more
hacking
possibilities. Here
we've found an
article explaining
the rooting process
step by step which
will help you to root
your android device
safely. Visit the root
android without
    
root your android
smartphone. 

Conclusion
Now as you've seen
the procedure is
very easy. We've
tested it on a very
low-end device and
we got a very good
result. The Kali
Linux machine is
running smoothly
without any
interruption.

AnLinux is a new
way introduced by a
Github creator and
maybe the best way.
You must try this
way and let us know
