Hey, guys, it’s hax here again! Today in this article I am going to teach you how to install kali Linux easily-VirtualBox windows 10. Basically to install kali Linux on Virtualbox it is really easy if you are new to this don’t worry I will show you all the steps. So without wasting a time let’s get a started

How to install kali Linux on VirtualBox windows 10?

Requirements for installing kali Linux on VirtualBox:

  • Must have 4 to 8 gigabyte of ram.
    The more ram you have it will be faster give it more if you have 16 or 32 gigabytes of ram.
  • Must have a good number of processor 2-5 is recommended.
    The more Core you give it will be easy to handle more program at once! i.e You can handle multiple programs at real time quicker!
  • Must have  Official iso of kali Linux 2.0 or latest.(Download it from Official site kali.org)
    As you guys know it’s open source it’s completely free. I highly recommend you guys to download it from official website because if you download from other site’s that may give you an error.
  • At least 20 GigaByte of the hard disk is needed.
    You can give hard disk space size more than 20 gigabytes it depends on your uses! More hard disk you will get more storage to store files and document inside VirtualBox

If you guys have above requirement then your good to go, guys! 

Let’s install kali Linux on VirtualBox easily now.

Alright, guys open your virtual box and now you want to  click on new. After you click on new it will show you name and operating system box. Now you can give any name as you guys can see in image below :

I gave the name as Kali Test and type as Linux and version as Debian because kali Linux is Debian based. After you set that thing just click on next.

Memory size: 

You guys can select amount of memory as much you can  but make sure it’s on the green label. As I have already told you guys more ram you have it will be faster. As you guy can see on the image below:

I gave mine as 2 gigabytes I have 4 gigabytes you can give more than this. after you set it up, click on Create.

Create Hard Drive: 

Now check on create virtual hard drive and click on create. Then it will show you guys hard disk file type, just check on VDI(Virtual Disk image) and click on next as shown image below:

As you guys can see that I have created 15 gigabytes of hard disk. you can give more than that if you have terabytes if hard disk. it’s all up t you guys. So once you have set your harddisk level now just click on create and it will ready your hard disk. And now you’re ready for new kali machine.

Configuration and settings: 

 We are not finished yet now you want to change settings of your machine. Have a look image below:

As you guys can see that I have chosen 2 processor. Because I can;t choose more than that if I choose more it will give me an error now.

So  the final thing in setting is that you want to go on storage tab  as shown below on image:

Click on empty and then click on that little cd icon then choose virtual disk file. So it will open your file manager right now choose kali.iso from your Downloaded folder or where you have stored. After you choose ISO file now you can click on Ok button.

Let’s install now

After you have completed the setting up all now it’s time to install. Choose your kalitest and click on start as shown below on image:

So choose graphical installation as shown image above because graphical makes work easier. So now you should set all the things from setup, your language’s and choose keyboard as American English or your choice. And also give username and root Password. Once you complete those all steps you guys will be on partition disk, as shown figure below:

Now choose guided disk because of your own virtual box. I recommend doing this cause it’s automatically going to create hard disk and swap. So what is a swap, it is the virtual memory that acts like the ram. So choose guided and click on continue. As shown image below:
