The Pinebook Pro has a change from the upstream firmware, which changes ccode=DE to ccode=all – this allows access to more 2.4GHz and 5GHz channels.The Pinebook image now has the WiFi driver built during image creation, instead of on first boot, this should speed up first boot time massively.Pinebook and Pinebook Pro images can now be used on either sdcard or eMMC.However, you will still need to use at least a 16GB sdcard/USB drive/eMMC
We have reduced the size of all our ARM images that are created, so downloads should be smaller. All of the ARM images come with kali-linux-default metapackage installed, bringing them in line with the rest of our releases, so more tools are available when you first boot. Some of the notable changes in ARM’s 2020.3 release are: By default, any fresh installs going forward after 2020.3 will have network repositories pre-defined. If you didn’t have network access (either voluntarily or otherwise) during installation, you would get an empty network repository (/etc/apt/sources.list). Starting with 2020.3, the network mirror in the full installer has been disabled so that the user can always get the same installation speed, and the same packages and versions for that release. However, you can easily install all the default tools via sudo apt install -y kali-linux-default. Please note that these images contain a “minimal Kali rootfs” due to technical reasons.
Kali NetHunter now supports the Nokia 3.1 and Nokia 6.1 phones. Please note that RFCOMM and RFCOMM tty will need to be enabled in kernels from now on to support some of the tools. For more information on Win-KeX, you can read the official documentation page. Sudo apt update & sudo apt install -y kali-win-kexĪfter installing it, typing in kex, or clicking on the button, Win-KeX will give you a persistent-session GUI running in WSL2 (Windows Subsystem for Linux 2). You can install Win-KeX by running the following: With the introduction of Win-KeX (Windows + Kali Desktop EXperience), it will improve the functionality and user experience improved dramatically. This is currently scheduled to be the default shell in 2020.4 (for this 2020.3 release, bash will still be the default). However, Kali is now planning to switch over to ZSH shell.
Setup Process – No more missing network repositories and quicker installsīy default, Kali Linux has always used “bash” (aka “Bourne-Again SHell”) as the default shell, when one opens up a terminal or console.
