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.
