Greetings sickness,

I'm trying to install on my machine Kali linux version 1.0.3 i386.iso.

I have installed on a USB using Win32 Disk Imager.

My last attempt was last night in which, I confirmed the sha1 hash was correct, I have notice that the boot screen goes into a loop then when it comes up then the loop stops, then I continue on with choosing the graphical install. All goes well until it get to the System Install section, last night I was able to install abt 45% of the system, then it crashes saying that System installed failed.

Here is my machine specs:

Greetings,

I was able to resolve the issue, looks like I had a bad version of Kali Linux, so I re-download it and got it working.

Cheers
