Installing Firefox on Kali

Face it, you're used to Firefox and Iceweasel isn't the browser that you'd hoped for with this operating system.  So, here you go:


1. Open root terminal window and type  apt-get remove iceweasel
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
This line doesn't look like it does anything but actually it adds repository for the installation.

3. Type apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com C1289A29
This line imports the required gpg key.

4. Type apt-get update
This one updates the required package.

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


Enjoy!
