woven101 :
Could someone please give me a step-by-step process to downloading Kali Linux? I would really like to use this OS but i cannot figure out how to download it properly.
Kali is not really meant to be an installed OS you use all the time.
Generally, you put it on a USB stick or DVD and boot from that. It is generally used for penetration and security testing.
Not something you 'use' all the time.
If you're looking to get into Linux, there are
much easier ways to start out..
