Hi everyone, I am a new user to Kali Linux and I am trying to use it via the use of Oracle virtual box. And I apologize in advance if my post is in the wrong thread...

While I was attempting to install it using the Graphical Installation option, everything seems to be proceeding fine until it is at the stage in which I was met with an error. Initially I had presume that the iso image I have downloaded could be corrupted, I re-downloaded it from the site, re-attempt the same installation steps, still I am getting the same error.

This is the error:
4242

Wondering if anyone has encountered such issue or a similar one before? Able to share any insights to me?

P.S: I tried using the vbox version of Kali Linux and it works correctly. Am interested to know where I am doing it wrong to begin with..

Hi tehki,
Did you able finally setup Kali? I have faced the same issue. Looks like it's some kind related with virtualization settings but I haven't found solution yet.

i've faced this a few times, if you go back in the installer and repeat the install process it should go through without issue.
