I think I do not really understand what do you want, but this site will not help you to crack anything.

Here is a link about kali: Using Kali Linux? PLEASE READ!!

Would be nice to explain better what do you want to achieve.

If you want to learn, you should start by reading the LQ Rules and Question Guidelines...we are happy to help with specific questions, but we aren't going to provide one-on-one tutoring for you. Also, why would you want to use kali? What's your rationale for using it?? Their own website tells you that it's for security and pentesting purposes, and it's for experienced Linux users.

You also don't tell us what brand/model tablet you're using, or what you're trying to do. We certainly aren't going to help you 'crack' a tablet, to access data that's not yours.

No, you can't. You can install it to a tablet COMPUTER (Microsoft Surface, etc.), but not on an iPad or Android tablet. Why don't you post and tell us what version/distro goes on which tablet, and the install instructions, since you're saying you can.

Ah, so as said: a tablet COMPUTER will run it. And installing it to access via VNC is essentially installing Linux as an 'app', not as a true operating system replacement for Android.

LOL
If you know anything about OSes you would know that Android is actually linux modified to run on their processor and fit within the space available.
Tablets, phones, and the like run on low power atom, arm, etc. processors and they are computers.
Linux can be run on different processors with tweaking which is where android originated.

Yes, I do know about OS'es, what Android is and where it came from, thanks. And yes, a tablet is a 'computer' in a strict sense. But when I say computer, I mean an actual device that's separate from the OS, not with the OS in what is (essentially) firmware, and custom-written for that set of hardware. Again, as mentioned...Microsoft Surface for example. I can take any standard PC and run Linux, OSX, Windows, or even AndroidPC (maybe, sometimes) on it. An Android tablet?? Sorry, no...not going to run native Linux like Ubuntu, is it? Or Windows?? Going to boot Mint on your Galaxy watch? After all...it's got a processor, screen, memory, storage, etc.

If you know anything about tablets, you would know the differences.
