Once selected, click on the “Erase” button. Launch Disk Utility and select the USB drive from the list of available devices. This can be done easily from the Disk Utility application that is included with every Mac. First, we will need to format the USB drive.
Before we get started, you will need the following: – A USB flash drive (4GB or larger) – A copy of the Kali Linux ISO (download it here) – A Mac Once you have all of the above, we can begin. In this tutorial we will be creating a bootable USB flash drive for Kali Linux on a Mac. It is maintained and funded by Offensive Security Ltd. Kali Linux is a Debian-derived Linux distribution designed for digital forensics and penetration testing. Want to read this story later? Save it in Heyday. Side Note: For those of you using VirtualBox or similar, set the Type to Linux and the Version to Oracle (either 64 or 32 bit based on your operating system). In this tutorial I will be documenting how to write the installer to a USB drive and install Kali Linux to the hard drive or a partition (more on that later). If this piques your interest, then stick around. It is a good way to get into the more advanced functions of computers and networks. Basically, it is used to test how secure “secure” systems really are. It contains tools for secure penetration testing. Kali Linux is a complete re-build of BackTrack from the ground up, adhering completely to Debian development standards.”īasically, Kali is the ultimate OS for ethical hackers.
To quote the Kali Documentation, “ Kali Linux is the new generation of the industry-leading BackTrack Linux penetration testing and security auditing Linux distribution. These distributions are designed for the end-user modern, daily driver operating systems. When most people think about Linux, they envision hackers and scrolling lines of code however, today there are many modern Linux distributions (brands, if you will) that offer modern user interfaces and compatible software.
