#INSTALL STEP BY STEP EFI KALI LINUX USB HOW TO#

All I will say here is that this decision had the effect of making installing Linux on UEFI firmware systems much more difficult. I will leave the debate about the wisdom of that decision to others. What this means is that if you have UEFI Secure Boot enabled, you can only boot a certified signed image - and at least in the original UEFI specification, the only signing authority was Microsoft. The idea is to certify the boot image(s) on your computer, so that evil-doers can not corrupt or replace them, and thereby penetrate your system. Secure Boot is supposed to be one of the major reasons for the existence of UEFI firmware - but in my opinion it is a ridiculously complex solution for a problem that the vast majority of PC users would never be faced with. The first level of UEFI configuration is the basic choice of whether you want UEFI Secure Boot enabled or not.

So if you have come here looking for simple answers and cookbook procedures, you're going to be disappointed. I will show that it's possible to install, configure, and use this Linux distribution with absolutely no command-line access.Д®ven worse, in some cases in my own direct experience, different systems from the same OEM have completely different UEFI configuration procedures.
