• How long does a dd to memory stick write of the img file take?

  Consider using BalenaEtcher.app It usually transfers at the maximum data rate possible and includes checks so you don't accidentally overwrite the wrong disk. Source: about 1 year ago

• This is my first time installing linux, can someone tell what this can be?

  Tbh if I were you I would just flash the Debian image to a USB with Rufus or BalenaEtcher and boot from the USB. Just make sure to disable secure boot before doing so, otherwise the USB won't boot. Also you should probably uninstall the Debian loader from Windows. Source: over 1 year ago

• Best way to create a windows install usb stick on macOS Monterey without using terminal

  You can download the iso and use something like https://balena.io/etcher. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Flexible distro for an absolute noob who wants to learn hands-on

  The live mode only works with an USB. You can set it up with Balena Etcher (http://balena.io/etcher/). Source: about 2 years ago

• Hey guys, I really need some help. I have no idea what to do.

  Ah on mac, that explains a little bit. So rufus does not exist for mac, but you can use something like balena etcher steps are: 1. Download the iso (keep in downloads folder, not on usb) 2. Open etcher and select the iso and the usb stick (verify it’s the right one) 3. Start etching (will ask for admin password) 4. When it’s finished put usb in your new computer and boot it 5. When the monitor displays a logo... Source: over 2 years ago

• Windows 10 finds Viruses in Kali Linux iso or VM image

  Thanks. It was downloaded from official kali.org website. Source: 11 months ago

• Resources needed.

  Step 1: download the Kali image from kali.org Step 2: burn the image with Rufus app (windows) on a pen-drive (16gb would be a good choice). Source: 11 months ago

• I have 2 versions of python (python3 and 3.11) and i can't seem to uninstall any of them ( i don't run kali on vmware)

  Hi, thanks for the reply (: I just mentioned in the 1st comment above that I actually had some trouble burning the iso into my pen usb since the windows firewall assumed some files as trojan. I don't know if they're really trojan ( and why would an operative system would have been built by trojan since I downloaded it from kali.org ) or if windows firewall is just too above of it's head.

• Desperate for advise! I’m a greenhorn.

  I think you're in over your head tbh. I wouldn't fret about getting haxxed or anything. I mean we could spend all day talking about all the ways you could, but if you got the iso from kali.org and used best practices shown on their website, you'll be fine. Source: about 1 year ago

• No gui and unable to fetch

  From what it looks like, you’re unable to resolve http://kali.org so this should fix it after you restart the service from the command I provided above. Let me know 👍🏼. Source: about 1 year ago
