First, Let’s create a  new virtual machine. Open Virtualbox and go to “Machine” and click on New or hold “CTRL+N”. The below window will pop up. Choose the name for your virtual machine. I named it Kali 1.0.9. Choose the OS type as “Linux” and version as “Debian(32 bit)” ( since I am installing 32bit version.). Click on Next






a


Allot the memory of  atleast 512MB. Click on Next.

kali9.2

Select the option “Create a virtual hard drive now”. Click on “Create“.

kali9.3

If you want to use your virtual machine  image with other virtualization software like Vmware in future, select vmdk image otherwise select vdi image. Since I regularly use this image with Vmware also, I selected vmdk. Click on “Next

kali9.4

Select the option “Dynamically allocated”. This selection allots the memory according to the requirement. Click on “Next”.

kali9.5

Allocate  atleast 15GB of hard disk to the virtual machine. Click on “Create“.

kali9.6

The virtual machine is created. It’s time to boot into our operating system. Before booting into Kali Linux we need to make  a few changes. Go to “Settings” as shown below.


kali9.7

Go to System>Processor and enable the option “Enable PAE/NX” and click on OK.

v8a

Start the virtual machine and browse to the location of the iso file of Kali Linux and click on “Start



kali9.8

Select the option “Install”. Hit “Enter”

kali9.9

Choose the language as “English” or as applicable and select the location of your choice. I chose “India.”

Kali9.9a

Choose your keyboard.

Kali10

The system will load some additional components and then prompt you for the hostname. Enter hostname and Activate the “Continue” button.

Kali12

You can choose the domain name if you want. However it is optional. Activate “Continue

Kali13
The system will prompt you to set the root password. Enter the root password and click on “Continue.”
Kali14

Re-enter the password to confirm. Click on “Continue.”

Kali15

The system will prompt you to partition disks. If you are not sure what to do or a novice, choose “Guide-use entire disk.” option.

Kali16

Confirm the disk partitioning.

Kali17

Select the partitioning scheme of your choice. If you are a new user choose the first option as recommended

Kali18

Then you will be given an overview of current settings. Choose the option “Finish partitioning and write changes to disk.”

kali19

Select the option “Yes” to write the changes to disk.

kali20

The installation of the system will start as shown below.

kali21

In the middle of the process, you will be prompted if you want to use a network mirror. select “No”.

Kali22

In the midst of the process, you will get a blue screen as shown below for a rather long time. Don’t panic and have patience. The process will continue again by itself.

kali23

Then system will ask you whether to install the grub loader to MBR. Click “Yes”  and the installation will continue.

kali24

When the installation is completed, the system will ask you to reboot into the system. click on “Continue”.

kali25

The system will reboot into the operating system as shown below. Enter the username as “root” and the password as configured previously.
         
                                                             Your Work Complete 

kali27

Now comes the most interesting but contentious part. Yes, installation of guest additions. But don’t worry. you will have a final solution at the end of the article.

kali28

Install guest additions by going to “Devices>install guest additions”. A cd image will appear on the Kali desktop. Double click on the cd image. A message will be displayed as below. Click on “Run”.

kali29

Most probably you will get an error message as shown below.

kali30

Before we do anything, let’s alter the sources.list file. For those who don’t know, sources.list file is a file where system  has list of repositories where the OS  should be checking for updates or installing new programs. Open a terminal. Type the command locate sources.list to search for sources file. We are interested in the one located in the “apt” directory. We will open this file using vi editor. Type command vi /etc/apt/sources.list as shown below.

kali31

The Vi editor will open the file as shown below.

kali32

If you are new to vi editor, type i once to get into insert mode, then add the following three lines given.
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali main non-free contrib
deb-src http://http.kali.org/ kali kali main non-free contrib
deb http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free
as shown below. Once you are finished, tap the esc key to get out of insert mode,then type :wq to save and exit the file. What we have just done is instructed the system to look for headers in the right place while installing guest additions.


kali34

Once you came out of the vi editor, type the command apt-get update && apt-get install -y linux-headers-$(uname -r)  to install the headers.

kali35

You will see the below processes taking place.

kali36

Once it is finished, open a terminal. Type the command “pwd” to see the current directory.  Navigate to the “media” directory where our virtualbox guest additions CD is mounted by typing commands “cd/” and then “cd media”. Type “ls” to see where our guest additions  is mounted. It’s mounted at directory “cdrom”. Navigate to that directory by typing command “cd cdrom“.  Type the command “ls” once again to see the contents of the directory.

kali37

We are interested in the file “VBoxLinuxAdditions.run”. Check the permissions of this program by typing command “ls -l VBoxLinuxAdditions.run”. We can see that the root user doesn’t have “execute” permissions on this file. First copy this file to the root directory by typing command  cp VBoxLinuxAdditions.run /root. Now go to root directory by typing command cd /root. Change the permissions of this file by typing  command chmod 755 VBoxLinuxAdditions.run. Now let’s check if the permissions have been changed. Type command ls -l  VBoxLinuxAdditions.run. We can see below that now we have execute permissions over this file.

kali38

kali39

Now let’s run this program. Type command ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run. Guest additions would be successfully installed as shown below. Now restart the system by typing command “shutdown -r now“.

Hope this was helpful. If you face any problems while installation, please leave a comment below.
