Deserted Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Is there a store which specializes in installing Linux systems? I am going to need Kali and Linux Discreet but will need help with them as there are aspects I am not familiar with it. I am talking about Bangkok here, does anyone on this site offer such services? I'm afraid I can't quite do it by myself as I am just starting out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
userabcd Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 (edited) Discreet only runs as a live system on cd, dvd or usb. Cannot be installed on pc harddisk. The project seems to be dead, no activity from the dev on github since 2016 and the last distro is still in beta 1. Kali can easily be installed on a usb https://www.kali.org/docs/usb/live-usb-install-with-windows/ All that is needed is a windows pc, the downloaded distro iso, a usb key and an installation soft tool like etcher, rufus or unetbootin or others.

Deserted Posted July 21, 2022 Author Share Posted July 21, 2022 Thank you very much for your help. I have the ISO and a USB, just using Etcher. I was trying to use a VM machine but couldn't get it working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deserted Posted July 22, 2022 Author Share Posted July 22, 2022 Well, I followed everything and still it does not install. What are my chances of going to somewhere like Pantip Plaza and finding someone who specializes in Linux, or on the site even? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you trying to install Kali in a VM? or are you having trouble using etcher in a VM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdsa Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) With modern hackers like the OP I am very confident in the safety of my systems and private data. Edited July 22, 2022 by fdsa 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to use a VM machine but couldn't get it working. Which vm soft are you using and do you have it installed? ITfoss explains nicely step by step how to install kali in a vm machine on windows or linux 1) https://itsfoss.com/install-kali-linux-vmware/ 2) https://www.kali.org/docs/virtualization/install-vmware-guest-vm/ Dont know of any specific shops in pantip installing linux and probably not kali. You could try pantip and ask around, there are some repair shops on the 3rd floor and maybe one of them could help but they will certainly charge some kind of fee.

John8 Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Kali is mostly a distro for hacking and its not particularly user-friendly, and clearly you are not a hacker ???? I would highly recommend a different linux distro like Ubuntu, Linuxmint or Manjaro, they will easily install on any VM or USB Stick if your problem is security. my recommendation for a VM would be Virtualbox.

Deserted Posted August 1, 2022 Author Share Posted August 1, 2022 In the end I had to settle for Ubuntu. Kali couldn't be installed from the flash drive I set it up on. Thanks for any help given. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
