Working on this and running into some issues. First I'm using the UEFI install from the forums but it is for an older version of Kali. I admit i'm rather new to the UEFI process, installing via MBR is no problem, but I don't want to lose my Windows 10 partitions.
Performing the USB live afterinstalling Kali 2.0 to USB via Rufus. Putting the EFI files in /EFI/Boot, the USB boots to grub just fine, but any selection comes up with kernel has to be loaded first. Kernel is in /live as grub.cfg is set. Here is my grub.cfg file
Code:
# Config file for GRUB2 - The GNU GRand Unified Bootloader
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg
# DEVICE NAME CONVERSIONS
#
# Linux Grub
# -------------------------
# /dev/fd0 (fd0)
# /dev/sda (hd0)
# /dev/sdb2 (hd1,2)
# /dev/sda3 (hd0,3)
#
# root=UUID=556feb5a-aa31-4dc0-91ba-1fc416f045c6 persistent
set menu_color_normal=yellow/blue
set menu_color_highlight=blue/yellow
function load_video {
insmod efi_gop
insmod efi_uga
insmod video_bochs
insmod video_cirrus
insmod all_video
}
load_video
set gfxpayload=keep
# Timeout for menu
set timeout=5
# Set default boot entry as Entry 0
set default=0
set color_normal=yellow/blue
menuentry "Kali - Boot Non Persistent Mode" {
linuxefi /live/vmlinuz boot=live noconfig=sudo username=root hostname=kali

}
menuentry "Kali Graphical Install" {

}
menuentry "Kali Text Install" {
linuxefi /install/vmlinuz video=vesa:ywrap,mtrr vga=788
initrdefi /install/initrd.gz
}
Anyone else working with this as well?
Also, keep in mind when I installed Windows 10, I left about 100gb at the end. Here is my partition scheme..
GPT
Disk 0, Part 0: 300MB Recovery Part
Disk 0, Part 1: 100MB EFI System Part
Disk 0, Part 2: 832GB Boot Windows 10
Disk 0, Part 3: 450MB Recovery Part
Disk 0, ****: 97GB Unallocated (Where I plan to install Kali)
Any other information, please let me know
