Kali Linux

Hi Black00Viking13

How much do you know about Linux ?

Any big changes to your disks should always be a sign to backup as problems can always arise.

Linux is a completely different operating system It has a different partitioning system as well as a different boot loader from windows and works completely different concerning most factors from development to file structure, I’m not going to go into details of what the exact differences are as I would be typing all day

Kali is an awesome OS and has a lot of useful tools, run the disc in live mode to get a feel for the OS and if your that scared of installing it directly to your HDD, install it in a virtual machine like Vmware or Virtual Box.

I have been using Back Track, Kali etc for a long time and it works like a dream although I’m more of a cyborg hawk fan

Hope this helps

@Black00Viking13 : As @weazer said, you probably want to use a virtualization software.

I used a laptop for my Kali Linux system. I found hard installing proved better for me bc I would always have issues using a virtualization. You can set it up where you can dual boot and have windows and Kali Linux on the same computer, there is a lot of information to help install and trouble shoot most issues as well.

I never had a problem using a virtualization software; and being able to run Kali as well as my main OS is very convenient.

why don’t you just run it as a virtual machine in virtual box or something?

I am going to download Virtual Box this afternoon. Thanks for the assist guys ;)

You can find VirtualBox images of the Official Kali Linux website (here).

@Yuriko I didn’t get that message til now. I already started the installation, right now it’s “Installing the System…” I didn’t install the image for Virtual Box, will this damage my pc?

You don’t need these images. They are just distributed because it’s more convenient than creating a new one. You are simply creating a new one.
