How I installed Kali-Linux on a Framework
-
Prepare an usb for the installation:
- visit Get Kali | Kali Linux
- download the live-boot-version
- visit balenaEtcher - Flash OS images to SD cards & USB drives
- download balena etcher for your current running operating system
- use balena etcher to flash an usb-drive with “kali-linux-20XX.X-live-amd64.iso”
-
Prepeare the Framework for the installation:
- boot the laptop
- during the boot click on the F2-button to enter the bios-menu
- open the security-tab
- disable secure-boot
- leave the bios-menu and save the settings by clicking the F10-button
- power-off the laptop
-
Start the installation process for Kali-Linux:
- insert the usb-drive
- open boot-manager by with the F12-button on the keyboard
- choose to boot from your usb-drive
- in the first menu choose “installation”
- run the whole installation-process
- reboot
- install update through the terminal with
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade - reboot
-
Start-up the system and install drivers:
- open terminal
- check the current drivers for issues
sudo dmesg- the issues are marked red
- if the wifi-driver is missing
- visit Linux* Support for Intel® Wireless Adapters
- if the link is to old: search for “linux wifi driver intel”
- download the correct file (the terminal output tells you which driver file is missing)
- visit Linux* Support for Intel® Wireless Adapters
- use the terminal to move the driver-file to the correct folder and reboot
sudo mv ~/Downloads/iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0-XX.ucode /lib/firmwaresudo reboot
-
Update the system:
- open the terminal
- check for updates and install them
sudo apt updatesudo apt upgrade
general points:
- With Linux-Kernel 5.16.0 I had to use iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0-67.ucode as wifi-firmware.
- If you encounter any issues please tell me. I try to keep the post updated.
