# Kali Linux VM Setup
|
|
|
|
## Background
|
|
For this course, I will utilize a kali linux virtual machine, by means of the VirtualBox Pre-built VM provided by kali. I choose this approach because I am already familiar with VirtualBox and I already have a kali VM's running successfully by these means (for a prior course) on both my linux laptop and linux desktop hosts.

|
## Configure
|
|
|
|
I've run the following instructions to bring things up to date
|
|
```
|
|
$ sudo apt update
|
|
$ sudo apt upgrade -y
|
|
```
|
|
_updates went smoothly and did not produce an interesting output_
|
|
|
|
Now I've run the setup script as suggested.
|
|
```
|
|
$ curl -LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dkmcgrath/courses/main/netsec/setup.sh
|
|
$ chmod +x setup.sh
|
|
$ ./setup.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
_setup file on my system_
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

_I've run the setup which took some time, and rebooted. After running setup again, it finishes in 6 seconds and seems to indicate everything is good. In my case, the output this time was about 500 lines and did not all fit on the screen_ |
