Hello everyone,
I wanted to test Kali on my M1 Macbook, but I can't manage to install it. I downloaded the M1 Installer from the website, set up everything in VMWare Fusion Tech Preview, chose Debian 11 as the OS, even though I already have tried everything else, but when the installation window comes up whichever option I chose the installer just freezes with black screen and not blinking underline. I've tried literally every single option and they all make the installer freeze.

Please be sure you are on the 22H2 release of VMWare - see the notices in the documentation - https://www.kali.org/docs/virtualization/install-vmware-silicon-host/

That fixed the issue, thank you. It was really weird, because whenever you search for the product, the old version appears first.
