Скачать или смотреть kali linux installation 2025

1) Prerequisites

-- Download Kali ISO from the official site (use the appropriate architecture: 64-bit).
-- For VM: VirtualBox (or VMware) installed on host.
-- For USB install: a USB stick (8 GB+) and utility like Rufus (Windows) or dd (Linux/macOS).
-- Internet connection recommended.

Backup any important data if you’ll install on a real disk.
2) Verify the ISO (important)
-Linux/macOS
-Windows (PowerShell)

3) Option A — Install Kali in VirtualBox (recommended for learning)

Create VM

New → Name: Kali, Type: Linux, Version: Debian (64-bit) (or Kali if listed).

RAM: 4096 MB (4 GB) recommended (min 2048 MB).

CPUs: 2 (or more if available).

Hard disk: Create VDI, dynamically allocated, size at least 30 GB (20 GB minimal but 30+ better).

Attach ISO

Settings → Storage → Controller: IDE (or SATA) → Add Optical Drive → choose Kali ISO.

Network

Adapter 1: NAT (internet). If you need the VM on same LAN, switch to Bridged later.

Start VM

Boot from ISO → choose Graphical install (or Install).

Follow Installer Prompts (GUI)

Language, location, keyboard.

Configure network/hostname/domain if needed.

Create user account: create a non-root user (Kali defaults to non-root account). Set a strong password.

Disk partitioning: choose Guided – use entire disk for VM (easier). If you want encryption, select LVM with encryption.

Install GRUB to the primary disk (usually yes) so VM will boot.

Finish & reboot — remove the ISO from the virtual drive.

(Optional) Install VirtualBox Guest Additions

In VirtualBox menu: Devices → Insert Guest Additions CD image.

In Kali:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y build-essential dkms linux-headers-$(uname -r)
mount the CD and run installer, or use package if available
sudo sh /media/cdrom/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run
