Parallels Tools fix for Kali linux 2019.3 and previous version

  • It can be applied to almost all operating systems as well as Kali linux.
  • Try this if you get an error from your Parallels Tools installation.
  • Apply OS - BackBox, Kali linux, AnonymousOS, Ubuntu, Debian etc
  • If you get an error, please write issues.

Parallels tools Setup

First update Kali Linux environment to the latest version. Copy and execute the following commands one by one:

apt-get clean
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade -y
apt-get dist-upgrade -y

Restart Kali Linux and install Parallel Tools.

Parallels tools Patch

  1. mkdir parallels_fixed in /root/Desktop/

  2. If you have a tool installed, there are files. Copy these files into parallels_fixed directory.

  3. Go to the kmods directory (cd ~/parallels_fixed/kmods)

  4. extract the files (tar -xzf prl_mod.tar.gz), and remove prl_mod.tar.gz file from that directory (rm prl_mod.tar.gz)

  5. Go to the prl_fs directory : cd /root/Desktop/parallels_fixed/kmods/prl_fs/SharedFolders/Guest/Linux/prl_fs

  6. Open prlfs.h and modify the file by going to line 16 and inserting a new line. Add this text : #include <uapi/linux/mount.h> The file should now look like this. Save and exit.

    ...
    #include <linux/fs.h>
    #include <uapi/linux/mount.h>   
    #include <linux/types.h>
    ...
  7. Go to the kmods directory (cd ~/parallels_fixed/kmods) and re-zip the files : tar -zcvf prl_mod.tar.gz . dkms.conf Makefile.kmods

  8. Go to the installer directory : cd ~/parallels_fixed/installer

  9. Sudo chmod the script files: install-cli.sh (and others) to be executable eg. sudo chmod 777 *.sh

  10. Then run that file with : sudo ./install-cli.sh -i --verbose

  11. Reboot when it's finished and check working well.

End
