Hi, I'm pretty sure there's option for ISO download. I've been using a dual booted Dell XPS 15z with Kali and Windows 8.1 for quite some time now. With Regards, Rohan Krishnadev. (Sent from my phone. Please excuse my brevity.) On 22-Oct-2014 12:00 pm, <luv-beginners-request@luv.asn.au> wrote:

I still haven't managed to get Linux installed on a separate partition on my desktop. I can get it to go through the process to a point, then it freezes up and I boot back to windows to try and figure out why.

For now that's another story.

While I'm reading stuff, I've come across Kali -Linux, which is very interesting and confusing. On the downloads page it only seems to have a download for VMWare (amd64). Does this mean I have to run VMWare and then install Kali-Linux as a virtual machine within...say...Windows, or is there a way to install it as the Primary OS? Is that even a good idea? I don't get it? What's this thing with VMWare?

By extension, does this also mean that when PenTesting a virtual machine like Metasploitable I end up with a Virtual Machine within a Virtual Machine. This is getting a little like a nightmare strait out of 'Inception'. Surely this can't be right.

Cheers Scott
