Hi there, I have had a quick look at Kali as a vm. I am still kind of new
to all this. I got a pi a while ago and have tried a few of the distros
available. Kali has one on offer tailored specificaly for the pi so I
thought I would try it out. I am not sure what went wrong for me!
I am interested in learning how to use the many network tools on offer with
kali.

Hopefully see you at the meeting.
