    Stuck on Boot loader and non of the solutions are working.

    Hi, I'm trying to install a prebuilt virtual machine onto virtual box, the version of kali is 2022.4, also i'm using an M1 chip macbook air and beta virtual box.
    So the apparent screen I'm stuck to is the bootloader? I just started, so no idea on how stuff worked.
    After i'm on that screen, no matter what i do nothing will happen, i can't bring up shells, nothing.
    I did try a solution that says to replace "quiet with "nomodeset quiet splash" in grub parameters, but that lands me in the same place as before.
    Thanks.Screenshot 2022-12-22 at 11.24.17 am.jpg

    That screen is dump file, that means that it didn't get as far as a boot screen..

    If its a prebuilt VM then you don't install it, you 'import' the VM image, or you can set up a new VM and attach a .vmdk virtual disk image

    Virtual Box uses .ova images or .ovf by default, if its .vmdk then it has to be imported!
