Hey guys,
I'm having a bit of an issue here while installing KaliLinux and I was
wondering if you guys can help out.
I installed *Oracle VirtualBox* on my *Windows 10* and downloaded *Kali
Linux 64bit ISO file*, Then I created a new virtual machine *(Debian
64bit)*and started installing KaliLinux.
Everything was great and almost 5GB of packages were downloaded and
installed, the final step is to reboot so KaliLinux can run.
I clicked on Finish Installation (after all packages and files were
installed ) and it showed me a message saying that Kali will run after
the machine reboot.
Guess what! *The machine rebooted and it took me back to the first
installation page again*, I didn't know what happened or if I did
something wrong so I clicked "Install" again and followed the steps.
And I had to wait **again for the 5GB of packages to be downloaded and
installed ( which was frustrating ).
Installation was finished and the machine rebooted and nothing happened.
*it took me back to the first installation page once again.*

I know it's a long email (sorry about that), But I needed to make sure
that you guys are fully aware of what's the issue so you can help.
Thanks in advance,
HB.
Good afternoon Harry
I sometimes have to go into the settings for the virtual device and
untick the other boot options - CD and floppy from memory.
