I'm attempting to build a custom Kali 2.0 ISO that has Nessus pre-installed on it. However, I can't locate the packages directory to place the .deb file in under the kali-config tree. I had been using the Kali documentation as a guide for this and it references a packages directory.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
config/packages.chroot for .deb packages
Except that when one downloads the live-build-config from git for Kali, there is no config directory. There's a kali-config directory and then various desktop variants. After build.sh is run, I see a config directory.Quote:

Is there another location I need to edit to allow the live build to find the package?
To add external .deb to kali repositories create a packages folder : live-build-config / kali-config / common / packages
To add .deb from the kali repositories add the package names to the kali.list.chroot file
So the latest Nessus.deb is not a valid Debian package. Debian packages cannot be Upper case (Nessus), and have to be (nessus). https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugr...cgi?bug=818907
I have soleved the issue by renaming and repacking the Nessus.deb packages as per
