Assignment 5.1 - Breaking into Kali
- This lab follows Devins's video guide into breaking into a kali box (duh)
- First, restart your Kali box!
- As it boots up, press space
- During the selection, do not choose any. Instead, press e to enter a config menu.
- Look for a line that says
Linux /boot/vmlinuz
and enter the following after the word "quiet splash"
single init=/bin/bash
- single: single user mode
- init=/bin/bash = tells system to boot using /bin/bash
- Hit
ctrl + x
- You will then boot to a root cmd
- I entered the following:
mount -rw -o remount /
passwd
df -h
sync
unmount /
