How did u do it? I?m having the same problem
open terminal
Then follow these commands:
1. sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list(it'll ask for password i.e., you use to login into your machine, enter that password).
2. enter the text you want to, then hit 'CTRL+O' and hit enter simultaneously.
3. hit 'CTRL+X' after that.
4. Done.
5. run 'apt update' and see the magic ;)
One more advice:
add s in the first http variable like deb https://http.kali.org................... to get more downloading speed in terminal. Thanks me later!
I dont know, maybe I entered wrong code but I always get this permission denied. like the error below, I wanted to hash a pdf file
@kali:~/Desktop/JohnTheRipper$ cd /run
@kali:/run$ ./pdf2john.pl pdfpasswd>pdfpasswd.hash
bash: pdfpasswd.hash: Permission denied
schevic@kali:/run$
