I've installed Kali before on previous systems and on virtual machines usually successfully, until recently.
I've got an old HP 15 laptop I want to install Kali as the main OS, when it was initially bought it had windows pre-installed and a partition for 'recovery'.
Initially, it took a bit of fiddling around to get it to stop booting into windows, even after what I thought was installing mint as the OS.
The laptop has an AMD A4-5000 APU CPU, whatever that means. 1TB of storage and 4GB of RAM, so I believe it should be sufficient?
I'm not a hardware whizz though so I'm possibly wrong.
For the actual install, I use my trusty USB stick that I update regularly, with the latest version from the site available.
When I use it in the laptop through the initial page does not have the 'graphical install' option. I can find it through the advanced options selection.
When I try this it states an error at reading from the CD ROM, which I don't understand as the USB has worked on other systems.
Any help would be appreciated as I'm not sure what else to try.
Cheers!
