#HOW TO INSTALL KALI LINUX ON VIRTUALBOX HOW TO#
In this article, let’s see how to install Kali Linux 1.0.6 in Virtual Box. I want to have them both running.Virtualization is great way to deal with multiple operating systems on a machine. If I connect to a wifi (with 7260) in the host with kali and alfa running the alfa stops working in Kali. Now however the problem is that when I plug in the Alfa device my network connection from my other wifi ceases to work (Intel(R) Wireless-N 7260) (the connection bridged from my host). So now when i run ifconfig I get that wlan0 is up (Alfa) but eth0 is down (Intel(R) Wireless-N 7260). The trick was to add a new custom USB device in virtualbox where you just take the vendor ID and product ID from the alfa device and leave the other boxes blank. Which helped me getting the Alfa card to work in Kali. You should now that I'm not too good with Linux etc. I really don't know what I should do here.

I have bridged my hosts network connection (Intel(R) Wireless-N 7260) with Kali and I have set up the Alfa 036nha as a usb device for Kali through virtualbox. I've also installed the VirtualBox 4.3.12 Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack.

I'm running Kali Linux 64bit 1.07 as a guest os through virtualbox 4.3.12 r93733.
