Once that’s done, you should have your Kali Linux image waiting in your downloads folder. What you want to do first is download an up to date image of Kali Linux (straight from there server or using a torrent client like uTorrent). In my opinion, you are probably faster with the written version, since there is really not much to it. Since I also recorded the process, you can either just watch the video below for most of this guide, or scroll down and continue with the written version. We are going to create a bootable Kali Linux USB thumb drive, from which we are going to run the actual installation on a secondary partition later on. The first step of this tutorial is probably the easiest. You can just use an external HDD or, like I did, use your existing NAS for your Time Machine backups. The easiest way to do so is probably Time Machine in combinations with Apple’s Time Capsule. In my tutorial I’m using a 13-inch MacBook Pro with TouchBar (Late 2016), so depending on your model and Mac OS version, things might be different for you.īefore we get started, please note that you should probably create a backup of your system before you go all the way and install Kali as your second OS on your system. Welcome to Part 1 of my Tutorial on how to do a dual boot installation of Kali Linux on your MacBook Pro running Mac OS Sierra.
