Hi

I downloaded Kali-Linux 2021.3 (64bit).vmdk (original name 64bit.7z) and created a virtual drive with it. I'm now able to boot into the Kali login prompt. However, the default login/password (kali/kali) does not work, and neither does root/toor work. I'm therefore unable to log in.

I'm also unable to edit the grub login prompt (on the line starting "linux" appending rw nosplash boot=/bin/bash) as the boot process hangs after a while and refuses to get to the root prompt.

Any help would be appreciated.
