I know it may seem like an idiotic idea to dual booting Kali and Windows, but I’m merely using Kali as an OS to pentest my own network and server, as well as writing code on it.
I currently own an ASUS X551MA. I have Kali Linux on USB. After creating a 104 GB unallocated partition, I restarted my computer, turn Secure Boot OFF and Launch CSM DISabled. I was able to go into my USB, and install Kali. I created a swap area (4 GB), about 50 GB for / and the rest for /home. After finishing up, I found out that when I restarted, I went straight to Windows. I tried the process again and again, and even used EasyBCD. It didn’t work.
After asking around several forums and such, I set up my USB as so: http://imgur.com/L9YPXTp. Afterwards, I restarted my computer, and booted into the USB. It was just a GRUB command line. What do I do? What are the necessary steps that I need to do in order to dual boot Windows 10 and Kali Linux?
I assume for your explanation that your version of Windows is 8 or above?
I’d guess so, from the last line. [quote=“UncleAlanC, post:1, topic:211186”]

Just to test your thinking on this a little, but “why dual boot?”. Given that you’re using Win10, have you given any thought to making use of HyperV and installing Kali inside a VM?
