Hi guys! Glad to be here!
I am stuck at the very beginning of Kali Linux - the installation.
I wanted to install Kali on my experimental laptop to try it out and have not succeeded so far. I will try to explain my problem:
I enter the non-graphic installation interface and give the first few parameters (region, language). When it comes to ask for wifi-connection, it is only able for me to enter an ESSID and a passphrase.
So I go back to the menu and enter a shell where I create a /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf and add the following parameters:
Code:
network={
ssid="example"
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
identity="[email protected]"
password="foobar"
phase1="peaplabel=1"
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
priority=10
}
The site where I found the example file also contained
Code:
eap=PEAP
ca_cert="/etc/cert/ca.pem"
but since the command
Code:
wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -B -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
returned a parse error at eap, and I am not using a CA-Cert, I left them out and got a success-return.
Still I am not able to ping anything so I suppose the mistake has been already made or I did not finish my work.
When I re-enter the installation guide, Kali is looking for networks and wants me to enter ESSID/password again which of course fails.
Is there any way fix this or to start something easy like networkmanager during installation so a lowbob like me can install his OS?
This is quite disturbing, also because I wanted to switch my desktop distribution Manjaro to Arch for which WLAN access also is obligated during installation. So far I am glad I did not start with that :/
If anyone could help I'd be glad.
Kind regards,
