Kali users/developers,
I installed Kali Linux onto a 256GB MicroCenter 3.1 USB stick and it boots up on the HP T620 fine, but I never get any GUI to log into. I can shift to a text terminal and all seems fine. The HP T620 (an older system) has a Radeon 8330 graphics card in it. Can anyone offer any assistance on this? At one point it said your screen is locked in a few seconds you will get an unlock screen, but after 20 minutes, it never appeared.
When I did the installation form the live version (I had another USB stick with live on it) I never saw the graphical grub screen I had to just know how many times to hit the down arrow for the right selection. I had booted using non-UEFI mode I think and that allowed me to get it installed, but it had an option "force UEFI install?" and I said yes. As well, now it seems not boot at all on my GD8200 laptop as well (thats an older system that I presume has no UEFI), but doesn't a UEFI install include legacy boot capability?
I had initially tried just dd-ing the LIVE image to the stick and going the encrypted persistence route but that was a bust as it was impossible to update the kernel so I figured a full install was best (I wanted GNOME over KDE anyway).
Thanks in advance and stay healthy and safe from the thugs.
