0006 kali linux hard disk installation

At present, there are nine official installation methods for kali Linux, which of course includes different hardware platforms, and different hardware platforms are actually more or less the same. Not all of the notes will be introduced this time. If you are interested, you can go to the following website to see more installation methods (https://docs.kali.org/category/installation).

The main purpose of this note is to record the hard disk installation method of kali Linux.

The official documentation of kali Linux's hard disk installation method has been written in great detail. You can go to this URL (https://docs.kali.org/installation/kali-linux-hard-disk-install) for a detailed introduction. I will only record the key points in the complete process below.

1. Download the ISO file

At the following URL, https://www.kali.org/downloads/, you can see the following download interface, and you can choose the version you want to download. At present, it is recommended to download "Kali Linux 64 Bit" version, because the current computer memory is basically more than 4G memory, and 32-bit systems only support 4G memory addressing, so more than 32-bit memory on the system is completely useless.

After downloading the ISO file, it is recommended to verify the sha256sum value of the ISO file to see if it is the same as shown on the official website (as shown above). If it is not the same, it means that there is damage in the download and needs to be downloaded again. There are many tools to calculate the value of sha256sum. There are sha256sum on Linux and sha1sum.exe on Windows. Both tools are executed on the command line. Type the name of the tool first, then a space, and then keep up with the ISO file. For example, the execution result of sha256sum kali-linux-2018.1-amd64.iso is as follows:

The calculated value is ed88466834ceeba65f426235ec191fb3580f71d50364ac5131daec1bf976b317, which is the same as shown on the official website, so the downloaded ISO file is complete.

two。 Make installation medium

As the CD is less used now, we will only introduce the method of using U disk to make installation media.

2.1. Make it under Linux

It is very easy to create a USB disk installation medium under Linux. Once you have downloaded the ISO file and verified the sha256sum value, you can use the dd command to write the ISO to the flash drive. This operation requires root privileges.

2.1.1. Confirm the device path of the USB disk

Execute sudo fdisk-l on the terminal, and after executing this command, you will see the following picture:

Then insert a U disk with more than 4G space. Remember, this operation will format your U disk, so don't put any data in it. After inserting the USB drive, execute sudo fdisk-l again, and you will see the following figure:

See the difference? / dev/sdb is your USB device, of course, it may not be sdb on your own computer, it may be sdc sdd, etc. Compare the above two pictures to find out which device your USB device corresponds to.

2.1.2. Make the installation medium of USB disk

Now you can use the dd if=kali-linux-2018.1-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=512k command to make it, and the prompt after completion is as follows:

2.2. Make USB disk boot medium 2.2.1 on Windows. Download the production tool UNetbootin

Download links are as follows: https://github-production-release-asset-2e65be.s3.amazonaws.com/239093/6de884d0-b862-11e7-8652-84d6fcbd2fc1?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAIWNJYAX4CSVEH53A%2F20180406%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20180406T020619Z&X-Amz-Expires=300&X-Amz-Signature=9aefb590c0acdd683e3e83bfac91b4c882a606bf56aa3581b405b747bc0289b3&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&actor_id=24752500&response-content-disposition=attachment%3B%20filename%3Dunetbootin-windows-657.exe&response-content-type=application%2Foctet-stream

After downloading, you can double-click on the Windows to run, select the U disk device, select the ISO file, and wait for the progress bar to finish. As I don't have a Windows environment for the time being, there are no screenshots. If you have any problems, you can communicate with me.

3. Begin installation 3. 1. Insert the USB disk to boot and enter the startup item selection

If BISO is not set to allow you to start with a U disk device, you need to set it first. Boot will enter the startup item selection interface, and different manufacturers will enter it in different ways. For example, mine is an Asustek notebook. You can enter the startup item selection interface by constantly pressing the Esc key when you boot up. After entering, select the U disk you inserted to start. You can see the following interface:

Some of these installation options mean the following:

Live (amd64): run kali Linux directly on a USB disk, which does not allow you to install new installation packages

Live USB Persistence and Live USB Encrypted Persistence: persistent USB installation and encryption persistent USB installation, which can turn a U disk into a mobile kali Linux system and can install new software.

Install: character interface installation

Graphical Install: graphical interface installation

Here we choose the graphical interface to install it. After you enter, the following interface appears:

Choose a language, it is recommended to choose English, why? On the one hand, English support is very good, there will not be some inexplicable mistakes, on the other hand, it is also to improve their English level in the process of using such a system.

The following is the physical address, as shown below:

Enter the hostname, as shown below:

Next is the host domain, where you can enter directly:

Then enter the user name:

Of course, you can skip it directly, just use the system default.

Then create a user, but kali Linux adopts the policy of root user, and there will be root user by default. You can enter your own user name here:

Then select the time zone:

Finally to the installation steps, here for beginners to choose direct boot installation, if you want advanced installation, you can also own Baidu partition strategy, of course, you can also trust me privately.

Select a hard drive

All hard drives are installed in one partition, which is best for beginners, saving unnecessary trouble

End the partition and start the installation

Choose the network update source, here must be the default, and your network must not be restricted, such as the Great Wall broadband restrictions, has been stuck here, can not jump over, the telecom network I have basically no problems.

After the network update source is downloaded and configured, it will be installed. After installation, the following installation graphical interface will pop up. Select which hard disk to install on, and press enter.

After the installation is complete, you can see the following interface, click continue, then unplug the USB drive and boot to enjoy your kali Linux system.
