Installing Firefox on Kali Linux

By RoCk StAr DeViL
Mozilla Firefox is a quite handy browser compared to Iceweasel (default browser in Kali Linux). It has lot of plug-in features that Iceweasel lag. Sometimes, we find it difficulty while navigating through Iceweasel. Hence, I thought of installing Mozilla Firefox. To do this, you have to first un-install Iceweasel from Kali Linux or else it won't allow you to install Mozilla Firefox. Here are the step that I performed.

1. Open root terminal window and type
    apt-get remove iceweasel
it removes iceweasel from the application menu

2. type echo -e "\ndeb http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/ubuntuzilla/mozilla/apt all main" | tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list > /dev/null
it adds repository for the installation

3. type apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com C1289A29
import the required gpg key

4. type apt-get update
update the required package

5. type apt-get install firefox-mozilla-build
install mozilla firefox on your sytem

6. type firefox on terminal window to start working with mozilla firefox

Kali Linux comes with a graphical built-in tool, i.e. Disk Usage Analyzer . This tool helps you to check the disk space usage. There are other options too, to check usage as per file system. If you need to check from terminal(for non-gui users), then there are two classic commands available for every linux distros, i.e.  (a) df : Report file system disk space usage (b) du : Estimate file space usage df command is used to check free disk space.
