I've tried a couple different guides and I cannot seem to get it working. I followed the one on Kali website , but the osx won't boot as it just has a white circle with diagonals meaning it doesn't see a hard drive. I think the issue is occurring when I install , I use the guided method and want to out it on the 25gb partition and leave osx alone on the rest of the partition.

Anyone else have this issue ?

Thanks

I've been trying that guide. After I resized the partitions today I could not boot back into apple.

Also, do I boot into refind or boot into Kali Live? After I install refind. I shut down, then boot the "windows" option from the USB.

When it gets to the Grub Install part, I pick yes and install it on the the hard drive option(there are 3 options, my USB, Hdd, and to enter device manually)
