hi,
am absolutely desperate to install kali now.
have unsucessfuly been trying to get it to work,and still havent found an answer after trawling through google,the closest have seemed to find is the issues that other member; supereffective is having- http://forums.kali.org/showthread.php?16910-Problems-installing but even he/she is getting further ahead as they are seeing an install option.
the exact problem is-there is no install options in kalis boot menu; no gui or text install option,it offers only live/forensic/failsafe.
have downloaded the isos from many different torrent locations as well as from direct official source,and also each kali version plus sixty four bit and non sixty four bit,the isos all work fine;theres nothing wrong with them which am made all the more tormented by because of how far its come on from BT. :P
am using a acer ferrari 200 small laptop which is a good spec,booting kali from a eight gb kingston USB stick.
on the hard drive have got only ubuntu installed but had purposely encrypted the whole hard drive through true crypt,and as a result it cant be mounted anc accessed via other OSs-coud this cause the install options to be missing from the boot menu?
is it worth un encrypting the hard drive or does the formating preparation distros do overide that encryption anyway? it was the first time using it.
as a related issue,whilst on the kali desktop, if the 'install kali linux' option in system tools is clicked,it will start loading in the bottom corner.
at the same time the internet will cut off, then the connection starts reloading again,and finaly-the 'install kali linux' option disappears.
--please help,am desperate,cheers!
