Hello all. I need some help with this one. I seem to have bypassed all of the normal Kali configuration that happens during a normal initial boot up.

I mounted a Kali image to an SD card and I am running it in a Raspberry Pi 4. I was able to get into the box through another machine via SSH, and I was even to able to get a remote desktop up. But absolutely nothing is configured because I never went through those initial steps.

Is there any way to rectify this and configure the OS properly? I'm trying to run this as a remote-access box thus trying to avoid using a monitor.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Follow those steps then you can connect via Remote Desktop(RDP) and do all you need
