Summary
We certainly learned quite a bit in this chapter. Feel free to wipe or delete your installations and try doing them again to become more acquainted with the processes for the different versions if need be.
In this chapter, we learned about the different versions of Kali Linux and the various platforms on which they can be installed and looked at the different methods for downloading different versions of Kali Linux. We then dived into the technical aspect by first learning how to create a bootable Kali Linux flash drive using Rufus utilizing the ISO image of Kali Linux, which we downloaded at the start of this chapter. We then learned how to install Kali on a physical device as a standalone OS and learned how to install Kali within VirtualBox as a VM.
In our next chapter, we will look at another method for installing Kali as a VM and learn how to install Kali on Raspberry Pi 4, followed by some post-installation tasks. See you in the next chapter.
