Here's a tip to not run into issues while installation. Always select to write image in DD mode for Linux OS.
A dualboot by ChromeOS and Linux would be interesting
My biggest problem with dual boots has always been the booting of windows after. It then takes forever to boot to windows and kali respectively. How do I resolve that?
Why Kali Linux ?
I have done the installation of Kali Linux 3.8gb many times.I know the full process but when it comes to the installation of Kali Linux full(i.e of 11gb) The tools are never fully installed and there are lots of other issues can you please make the video on how to install the full version of Kali
If you have to watch this .... And you're learning from this..... And you didn't know this before..... Dude/Dudette and everyone in between, I'm proud of you. Don't stop checking in on videos like this or actively searching for videos like this.
i applied this and ended up screwing the boot config 😵💫
You sound like a paid bot
I'm a widow.. .I've let updating my linux/windows machines slide, but with Windows becoming more an more intrusive, it's time to fill in the holes in my knowledge terrain
Thank you David. I’m an IT professional and install various flavours of Linux quite often. But it’s always good to watch a well made video. I love your content in general so keep up the good spirit!
@@virgilwalker683it wasn't for downloading files it was for configuring network on the machine he said it wrong
You are amazing how you can create concise and understandable content! I’ve been trying to do this for some time now. you made it so easy!
Thank you! Keep practicing and it'll get easier :)
David is the Cyber Tech uncle everyone needs !!!! Thank you for your service
As always, great content David. This was one of my first projects a few years ago when I was starting my cyber-security journey. Everything went well until I decided to create a separate partition for other personal files and I ended up corrupting the grub bootloader for my Kali partition, which ended up being a nightmare trying to repair. I was able to fix the grub bootloader and learned alot. My recommendations for anyone with less experience, first backup windows before trying this dual boot process. Second, I recommend doing this on an external hard drive and installing kali all by itself. It's been the best decision I've made. It basically makes it a portable OS that you can just plug in to any computer and boot it right up. There's a million ways to do this, but this was the best choice for me.
Great recommendation to backup windows first. 👍 As for installing to external drive, you're still gonna first have to go into EUFI on any computer you plug into and allow for 'boot from USB', right?
Vote for external USB drive since in that case bitllocker still can be used
@@scottspa74 Once the external drive is plugged in you can boot from it in a few ways. You can manually choose it from your UEFI drive menu or restart your computer from the Recovery settings and choose EFI usb device. I have noticed that when updating kali it will add the boot entry for you to the windows bootloader which allows you to just select it and it boots right up. I didn't have to mess with any settings on my UEFI either. If that makes any sense
I did this with windows home edition at the time so bitlocker was not an issue. @@pnp346
i think i corrupted my bootloader too, now ive lost my win 11😂
Thank you David for this great content on how to install and operate dual OS .
I have been trying to configure installing kali on my laptop which you have covered well on this video. This video perfectly matches my requirements. 😊
Thank you for the video, it worked perfectly. I learn a lot of stuff from you, we need more people like this
Thanks for this amazing video! If anyone gets an error stating that the disk is not available or is being used by other processes, you can try this: > show advanced format options > remove "quick format". Worked for me, had to wait an hour though.
i am getting the same type of error. what process or where in the process would this be at?
I'm going to go ahead and just add this to my Home Lab Playlist really quick.
Make the playlist public already
100%
Ye and also if u plan to have more than 1 pc im your home lab buy a swich box(its like 30 bucks)
I already did
Thanku so much man i have been stuck in the select and install software for a long time and i have serach so many video but didn't get the result but by watching ur video i have successfully installed it
Fantastic video! I watched David over the last couple of years randomly. As an Applications Specialist who wants to move more in the cloud/Networking/Security space.
شكراااا اقسم بالله اكثر من ٢٠ مقطع في اليوتيوب بدون اي فائده ،، طلعت الفايده عندك 👍👍👍
اي ولله صح كلامك يا برو😂
Great job boss❤
Thank you so much 😀
OMG!!! GREAT TIMING!!! I NEEDED THIS TODAY AND BOOM!!! WE HAVE A VIDEO ABOUT DUAL BOOT!!!!!!! Thanks David..❤🔥
This is an awesome video! Wish I had this available when I learned how to do it. Triple boot Windows, Kali, and Mint
These particular errors were probably caused by Windows 11 virus protection app(it scans files while Rufus process it), as it treats some of Kali's standard packages as malicious and prevents Rufus from copying it to the USB. So then the installer can't find those files and throws out error message.
I've done this recently and then retried creating the new volume with virus protection off and it worked fine with our any errors.
you're right!
Its the same with win10
after installation on can it reactivate the antivirus or it continues the detector?
@@Foufoulefilou you can reactivate the windows defender after flashing the iso file with rufus
Yea you can reactivate it@@Foufoulefilou
For everyone having problems finding the disks you just formatted for Kali, make sure to enable AHCI mode in your bios before installing Kali.
Thanks man
what if my bios doesn't have it?
Should’ve been on THE VIDEO. LOST WINDOWS:(
Great video as always! I miss my XPS from my last job. I dual booted Windows and Pop Os on it
Thanks man, ive struggling with the install of kali . Now its installed .thanks you
Great content David ! By the way, is there any kind of hypervisor as light as ESXi , but that could show on the screen at least 2 VMs like Windows and Kali on a 10 year old laptop screen ? Something like a "light proxmox" ? That would be awesome, wouldn't it ?
Here is some notes
* Instead of installing kali using a Live boot USB/NVME would be better as Kali is insecure for install, this way you can just use the BIOS boot selector.
* As a alternative would be to install normal Debian and install the tools on that install instead.
* You can add secure boot to Linux so this is only needed for the install.
Thank you very much for the instructions David, it is always good to refresh the memory.
Thank you very much I have a not so good laptop with no dedicated gpu running windows 11 so it was an idea I had to use a less bloated os and it works better then windows does thank you for helping me your instructions were very clear!
I was used to do this with my old laptop having two different SSD's, but that laptop broke a few months ago and bought a new one with only 1 M2 SSD, so I splitter this SSD in two partitions and that's it! Just make sure you set Kali Linux as main boot on the bios as this one contains grub.
hi, I have a question about dual boot system, since you said that you are familiar with. I need to install ubuntu with windows 11, and I released some 160G for this purpose. is this space enough for running some applications like OMNeT++ on my ubuntu OS? BTW, OMNeT++ requires at least 8G memory to work.
@@nawrozbasem22 yes that's enough ☺️ let's say 40gb would be enough per OS
thank you, :) @@LofiBeatsRadio
another question if you don't mind, I have three partitions on my windows11 C, D, E. So, when I install ubuntu is it automatically takes the unallocated space for installing second OS? @@LofiBeatsRadio
@@nawrozbasem22 nope, you will need to use advanced options and select the correct partition. If not you will be prompted to use entire disk space and you will remove the already existing os.
a great explanation as always. Can you make a Dual Boot MacOS and Windows ? Thank you
Thank you! Great suggestion :)
@@davidbombaldual boot linux and openbsd? Lol
Absolutely a very informative instructional video my friend.
Easy, quick and effective. And thanks for the error solving trick.
Thank you. And you're welcome :)
For anyone who's partition is not showing in the kali installation menu, Switch from RAID TO AHCI. Fore you do that, make sure you have a usb to reinstall windows after that. I think there's a workaround that lets you change it without reinstalling windows but Idk it maybe David can shed some light on it.
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I was struggling for so long trying to figure out why I wasn’t seeing the partition
@@Enteramon happy to help!
Thank you. But isn't there the danger of windows overwriting on an update so the dual boot does not work?
No because the bootloader is from Kali Linux and not windows, you can also manual boot into both
I have enjoyed the video and installed kali in pc. Thanks man❤
It's not the first time that I imagine something and I need to learn it and the next couple days david posts it!
Quick tip from a IT expert. If you need a video to show you how to dualboot you should not use Kali.
Why.??
Please elaborate...
It's 2023. Why would you
@@jayeshgudaghe3923 theres nothing to elaborate it's a distro for pentesting or "hacking" but you need a video to show you how to dualboot it ??? On top of windows???? Lollll
@@BobStallmanArchUser still dont get you lol
Tat was awesome.. David unchecking the top 10 during installation n additional software made the day as I was getting struck there…
Brother thank you for all the information and knowledge you pass on to us. I'm new to all this I.T. world.
This tutorial is awesome and reliable, thanks! 🎉
You’re the best prof, Thank you so much
Great explanation, worked perfectly! thanks...
thanks but I cant shrink more than 6.5 giga... I have about 400 gb free!!! why and how to solve please
Thanks you very mach. This video was so useful and interesting. Wish you all the best and I will keep liking your videos.
Brooo you are the goat i tried your old video but that didn't work and this worked broo thank you
😊 can't wait to try this.
Informative video... thank you Sir 😊
Perfect video exactly what i was looking for 👌🏻
Glad to hear!
Finally ❤️🔥🔥🔥
Thank you so much sir 🌷
You're welcome!
You made my day happy 😁
This is fantastic, thank you!
bro thank you so much I was about to buy a rasbery pi 4 just to put kali linux in. Left you a sub and a like
Thanks a lot sir this video really helped me.
Superb helpful video, thanks very much ✨👌
You posted this vid way too late (for me at least), my PC is already dual booted but still a good and entertaining video to say the least! Keep it going man ❤
The problem for me in dual booting is when I shut down my PC when operating kali it freezes a dragon image
I really like the way you do cyber stuff.
Very Informative. Thanks
very detailed video! I'm newbie to Windows and 0 knowledge in Linux
Hey David. Thank you for the cool video. One question for you. A lot of people learn from but how do you learn? Where did you learn it? 😊 Thank you
Great video, Can you use the internal wifi adapter when using Kali
David you are Amazing in IT field
Nice..Info at Right Time
Happy to hear that! 😀
Thanks for the video, is the process the same if you want the graphical install of Kali?
I have a dedicated hard drive for installing Linux. I learned a long time ago to always make sure Linux will be installed on my second hard drive and grub will be installed on my windows drive :)
Hey David ,I've been trying to find some recent videos of you talking bout ccna specifically in this year,but couldn't find.
I've heard there's some changes in the exam itself ,are you maybe going to make a video touching that topic again ? would be appreciated for us who are willing to go back ,are the same books valid ,courses etc,or is there something entirely new ,you know ,just the good old informative video on CCNA in 2023/4
Btw I'm enjoying your podcasts with different people ,especially cybersec stuff,so much fun and so much to learn,keep it up ! thanks for all the effort you put into your content !
i got the red screen before that stage, but got passed it just by retrying, nice guide
thank you bro i love this video
Thanks David. I had the same issue with the installer. I will give it a try. Is using Kali for day to day work as an OS not advisable?
Thanks for this video.
I usually make a custom image with the kali install scripts so I get just the things I use. For me most of the time I am just doing CTF stuff and bug bounty stuff so for example I don't really need the forensics stuff like sleuth kit. I'm betting some of your viewers would like to see how that works. Maybe they just want to build a Kali forensics lab or something like that.
welcome back - "hand on practice"
Hi. I wish you Happy New Year from Romania
Simple and easy ❤
At the end of the video you did not mention if there is any need to change back the bios to its original settings? is there anyneed?
man you are awesome
Great, boss ❤
This is what I wanted....!!!!
Thanks you for helping 🙂
For many machines, particularly Lenovo laptops, you also have to switch from UEFI to Legacy in the BIOS or the screen will be garbled when attempting to install. Drove me bonkers!
Thanks for the tutorial David, i've successfully install Linux on my laptop. But one thing is bothering me is there is no audio/sound coming out, do you maybe know how to fix this?
David would it be possible to use bootcamp to install both windows and then run it again to put Kali on? Giving a triple boot option. Mac, windows and Kali.
Thank you worked perfectly, 🏴👋
I don't understand why so many people do this, you can directly go into Boot Menu and do a one-time boot from a different drive without even going into BIOS and changing the Boot order.
On my laptop it's F1 for BIOS & F10 for Boot Menu. I also done this to multiple users since I'm the tech of the family, and every singe Laptop/PC I used has a specified F-key to boot directly into Boot Menu for one-time boot from a different drive.
EDIT: For ASUS laptops the key combination to boot directly to the Boot Menu is ESC + Power Button.
Hi David, Big fan here! Love your videos- as always they always hit the mark. 🎯 Just got a quick question: is there a smooth way to make a remote machine dual-boot into Windows and Kali Linux? Every time I reboot to switch OS, I lose my remote connection from my Windows 10 machine. Would love to have your insights. Cheers 🙂
For people not getting the boot option choice after installation, each laptop should have a key for you to choose which operating system to boot from. for example for my msi laptop my key to select what OS to boot from is F11, from there I can go to kali or windows. Hope this helps
hey david, to use a dual boot I always use a swap drive of around 10gb and one actual drive of 100gb for the kali linux, I dont know the details of what that swap drive is for but the instructional video I followed which is in Hindi btw explains that and that drive stays hidden on both kali and windows. (ill try to put a link down of the video). My pc starts with the grub bootloader v2. I dont see you using a swap drive here, is the swap drive not actually necessary?
Thanks mate 🎉
heads up make sure you have your bitlocker key handy or suspend bitlocker on your drive ahead of time in case you need to reboot into windows
I would have liked to see you talk alittle more about the advantages of dual boot as well as some ideas on how to transfer file between the too (from Kali to windows or the other way around) but other then that I need to try this at home
This. I came to find out why you would even want to dual boot in 2023 besides not having enough RAM and CPU to use a VM. I myself run Pop as my base OS and everything else on VM.
@@StevenKell I was looking at this so I would have 100% of the devices resources available when doing things and so I don't get side tracked to play PC games 😁
@@StevenKell wlan0 is not showing in my laptop? although i am connected to wireless network it just keep showing ethernet ? why is that so?
thanks man
even that rootless installation was succesfull
Thank you sir .
Thank you sir 🎉
I always dual boot since the days of winXP.
Earlier I had to use third party boot software like Bootitng.... Etc
But now all Linux distros (almost) use grub which is extremely intelligent and modern, it takes all the hassle of dual boot on itself.
Hello David, simple and easy to understand. Can you tell me what good will this do to me in terms of my daily basic uses with windows 11? Are there any benefits which windows Cannot provide?
in terms of daily basis usage, kali linux is, as far as others OS, is not different. What can Win11 do, Kali will do and either way. This method with dual boot is mostly for specific tasks that requires linux as OS. Security, breches, etc.
Epic ❤
Thank you for teaching
You're welcome!
What is the model of the laptop displayed at the start, as an example of dual boot?
What about a C drive where the windows resides that is already encrypted with veracrypt? Could you shrink it and try to install kali or you will probably encounter problems doing that?
Looks Good
thank u bruh it worked
THANK YOU
Hi do I need a physical USB drive for the installation or I can download Rufus for the installation
@davidbombal
Question:
Do you need to do this if you have multiple disks.
If you have windows installed on disk 0
Cant you just install kali linux on disk 1 ?
it worked i finally have kali linux in my windows 10 and i thought that my laptop lenovo legion y520 wont work in it i cant install windows 11 in it but kali linux yes you can just trust me follow his steps and do not skip it will work i want kali because of the terminal and i want to code that's why i downloaded kali on my computer
