    Upgrading from Kali 1 to Kali 2 with Grub and Windows 7.

    Hey guys,

    I'd like to upgrade from Kali 1 to Kali 2 but I already have 2 OS installed on my HDD. First is Kali 1 and 2nd is Windows 7 and I'm using GRUB to choose which OS I want to boot. So, my question is, can I uninstall Kali 1 without interacting with Windows partition and then install Kali 2 at Kali 1 partition? It's very important so I have to be sure that Windows files won't be affected.

    Yes you can do it .
    Kali have one partition only for it and windows have other .

    You can do it by upgrading your kali 1 to 2 by changing the repositories .

    edit your /etc/apt/sources.list
    and remove the old repositories from kali moto .

    add these new ones :

    deb http://old.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib
    deb-src http://old.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib
    then invoke from shell these commands :
    apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y
    then finally invoke the distribution upgrade by :
    apt-get dist-upgrade -y
    Note : do not add kali rooling repositories until you finish your kali 2.0 upgrade .
