    Unable to intall kali linux in 32 bit

    I made a "KaliLinux" environment in "Oracle VM VirtualBox" and as i have done this thing before i knew that "environment" is correctly setup. I downloaded "Kali Linux 32 bit" from Kali Linux Offical Site

    What i did on VirtualBox

    I had 135 GB free on my harddisk so i gave 20 GB to VirtualBox.
    Enabled PAE/NX By clicking on System and then on processor.
    I have 2GB ram on my PC so i gave 512 MB to virtualbox.(My Ram is usually 50% occupied)
    I have a Intel Atom processor 1.66GHz. List item
    Now as I clicked on "Start" on "VirtualBox" and Selected "Intall" A Black screen with an underscore came and it freezed

    Conclusion : I was not able to install kali linux on virtual box due to black screen popping up with an underscore in it.

    I tried Googling it but found nothing similar.THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED

    I appreciate your help

    Thank you

    You'll need more ram than that and your CPU is pretty slow/limited. So, switch to a LXDE desktop.

    Have you tried the pre-built VM?

    Google can tell you what it is. It's another light desktop like XFCE.

    Then download the prebuilt VM and try it.
