Installation about emba

[keesj-exset]

Hi,

I indeed came to this conclusion. The install script depends on kalilinux. I created a vagrantfile (to generate a virtual machine with emba installed). I did not test much yet but the installation works. I did try a few other approaches documented in the install but quite frankly is was all a bit confusing (if you do not start with a kalilinux base).

Perhaps .. somebody want to have a look at the vagrant based setup (this would also allow to "throw" away the virtual machine after use."

I tried this on differnt machines

It looks like the install helper scripts tries to get apt info on metasploit but apt returns:

   E: No packages found

This is on ubuntu 20.04 (the package does not exits)
there is a check for this line 55 but this ca not be reached if line 49 does not find a description

Hi @keesj-exset

As far as I know the metasploit package is only available on Kali. I recommend to use the docker container with "sudo ./installer.sh -d". This installs only the cve-search and docker environment on your host.

If you really prefer using the dev mode (usually there is no reason doing this) you could bypass the errors with disabling strict mode in the installer. But I'm not sure if you are going to get a working installation at the end.

Now I included a link to EMBAbox in our wiki: https://github.com/e-m-b-a/emba/wiki/Installation#random-installation-topics

Thanks for your great addition to EMBA. Will close this for now
