If you only want to install it without modifying your grub, I would place the ISO somewhere in the drive. Boot my machine, when grub menu appears I would go to command line grub, and from there start the ISO. It is easier to boot from a UUID so that you don't have to identify the chain position of the drive/partition you want to boot from. To idendify your drive UUID you can check your fstab which will probably be set that way, or just execute blkid which will give you de ids of your devices. Search --fs-uuid YOUR_DRIVE_UUID --set=root set iso=Path_and_name_to_the_iso You should load the modules you need if your drive have an ext2 partition insmod ext2 and so on. Set opt='findiso=$iso boot=live noconfig=sudo username=root hostname=kali' linux (loop)/live/vmlinuz $opt initrd (loop)/live/initrd.img Finally just enter the command boot and your ISO will be loaded and you will be able to install Kali.

Becarefull when your installation is finished, since it will ask to modify your grub, you may want to modify it manually in your ubuntu installation or let the kali install set it in that partition (I'm talking about grub.cfg) Edit: UUID is better if you use it in your grub.cfg, if you are going to type it (which is the case I'm talking about) it is better to identify the drive and set it root with (hd0,msdos1) as Ruslan Gerasimov stated in his post.

SO IM IN SOME DEEP Yeah.I was planning on installing Kali linux next week but, well. Alyac antivirus english free download. I found my usb a (stupidly) Format the USB to UFI and got it locked into read only.So then i went and grabbed UnenBootin and loaded the iso, then a virus hit.My windows OS no longer works and Unenbootin is broken and can only load up the temporary linux, so. I re-downloaded the ISO and I managed to fix my USB but the temporary linux i cant extract the data from the ISO to the usb, even if its inside the USB because the USB does not support shortcuts. (i have no idea why) so i just booted the pure Iso on FAT32, it did not work.

I reformatted the USB to UFI and it did not work still! Dimsport usa. It turns out i need the Data inside the ISO on the root of the USB while on Fat32 (or UFI i dont remember) so at this point i tried one last thing. I found an article saying if i put the ISO on the root of C: it would be able to launch it in the 'Select on Operating System part' it did not work.

We now generate weekly Kali images so you can always get a fresh ISO whenever you need it. Good signature from 'Kali Linux Repository ' [unknown] gpg: WARNING. Apt-get install git live-build cdebootstrap git clone git.

IM OUT OF OPTIONS HERE, HELP! EDIT forgot to mention i opened the ISO and launched the installer and it needs the rom from the USB to install, so that failed too Also my USB is completely dead now so. Confused on what you are trying to achieve. Once you are booted from a device there isn't really a way to overwrite the data on the device you are booting from. If you are booting a linux distrobution from HDD the gnu utility dd can directly write an iso to usb. USB does not need to be formatted. Just need to download a new iso then: sudo dd if=/path/to/isofilename.iso of=/dev/sdX where sdX is the location of your flash drive when plugged in, which you can obtain with command 'sudo parted -l' Reed everything i said!
