Kali Linux Install Tutorial | NEW! Undercover Mode | 2019.4 Update | (Beginners Guide)

Kali linux is a Debian based distribution and is offered by Offensive Security with a focus in pen testing, forensics, and security. The main focus of Kali is to supply tools for users and developers to test their software and networks and find vulnerabilities before others can exploit them. It’s a great distribution if you’re interested in cybersecurity and there’s even classes out there that are offered based around using Kali Linux to detect exploits. It’s really made a name for itself over the last few years and continues to be one of the top distributions for security. They also have documentation for beginners, as well as, advanced members with examples that help you setup various scenarios that you can test with Kali.

What could I be doing wrong after I flash it it's asking me to reformat and when I do there's nothing in my file

[sykosinofficial]

Can I boot into Kali Linux from my SD card inserted into my SD card adapter? My HP laptop 14 has an SD card slot, and BalenaEtcher Said it was a success flashing the SD card.

After a successful install of Kali, the only way I'm able to login is by using root? I assume that's the correct thing to do. If so, what's the next step? I know on my other Linux laptop I do a sudo apt-get update etc.? How about Kali? Do I install 'other programs" from root as well?

[whalenaidan]

So I just turned off secure boot do I need to make sure the usb is in while restarting it to make sure I get the boot menu?

[skakkr]

i get a error but doesn’t say a error code but it says “partitions 1, 2 on /dev/sdb have been written, but we have been unable to inform the kernal of the change probably because it/they are in use. as a result, the old partitions will remain in use. you should reboot now before making further changes.”

I have a question, after you flash your usb with kali Linux what are you supposed to do to go to the boot menu where you select which one you install

[ForestFolf]

I didn't get the pop-up to get a root user.. I got one for a real name, username, and a password. Is that the same thing..?

[joJoe]

Hope you still read this! I did this method but in 2020 so idk if that could be the issue as to why everything was successful but I cannot login. Says password incorrect over and over. Tried the other root profiles and kali login mentioned by others but no luck. My username I had made is at the top of the screen

[nosduhs]

I installed successfully but got stuck at the black screen with the dragon right before you put your login info in. What do i do?
