Compiling aircrack-ng suite on Raspberry Pi Raspbian

Why, because you can.  I'm doing this on the stock upgraded Raspbian distro kernel 3.6.11+.

Prerequisites are a brain, knowledge of Linux and Raspberry Pi.  Casual tech self-abusers should go and do some research first and yes the Pi is helping them come out the woodwork.

Compiling from the source down not work, it has not been upgraded for a while.  Just check out the SVN.


sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install libssl-dev subversion iw
svn co http://trac.aircrack-ng.org/svn/trunk aircrack-ng
cd aircrack-ng
make
sudo make install

airmon-ng is no longer compiled during make by the looks of it, but it is in aircrack-ng/scripts

You can make it executable by doing a chmod +x airmon-ng, then copying it to the same path where aircrack-ng is natively installed.  i.e
/usr/local/bin/

To get airodump-ng to work properly, you may need to kill all the services that airmon-ng complains about then it is running.
Go to /etc/init.d and
sudo ./ifplugd stop

then sudo killall all the rest of the processes that airmon-ng complains about

PID    Name
1589    ifplugd
1617    ifplugd

Process with PID 16076 (ifplugd) is running on interface wlan0
Process with PID 16088 (wpa_supplicant) is running on interface wlan0

Seems to work ok
