Install Kali Linux as the main os on PC. Full step by step guide.

INSTALL KALI LINUX AS THE ONLY OPERATING SYSTEM IN YOUR PC/LAPTOP

NOW WE ARE ABOUT TO INSTALL KALI LINUX AS THE ONLY OS AVAILABLE ON YOUR PC. So be sure you want to do this. Installing Kali as the main os will completely  kill the widows or whatever you had in your PC. HIT THE WEB AND SEARCH HOW TO BACKUP WINDOWS INTO A USB BECAUSE YOU NEED TO BACKUP IF YOU WANT.


IF YOU ARE STILL A NOOB AND YOU DON'T KNOW EVEN A BIT ABOUT kali Linux pen-testing and hacking, THEN BOY YOU ARE IN A RIGHT PAGE.🤔

Kali Linux is a distribution specifically designed to be a toolkit for professional pen-testers. As such, it might be very attractive to new Linux users who are interested in security. However, Kali is not designed as a general-purpose Linux distro. 
Some elements of its design are simply not suited for use as a general-purpose desktop.
 If you're a new Linux user who installs Kali Linux chances are you will have a frustrating experience. The Kali Linux maintainers even have a FAQ page.

I WILL TELL YOU EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS OPERATING SYSTEM AND ETHICAL HACKERS.

Throughout the history of Kali (and its predecessors BackTrack, WHAX, and Whoppix), the default user was the root, This is no more. Kali Linux is no longer using the superuser account, root, as default in Kali 2020.1. The default user account is now a standard, unprivileged, user. 

So with this, should you use Kali as your daily driver, as the primary OS? It’s up to you.
There wasn’t anything really stopping you before, I just don’t encourage it. We still don’t. But it's a helping hand for the people who are familiar with Kali enough.“Kali Live” hasn’t been forgotten about – it’s just moved to its own image. 
This allows you to try Kali without installing it and is perfect for running off a USB stick. You can install from this image, however, it will require a network connection (this is why we suggest the stand-alone install image for most users).

With the latest release, there is a major change switching from GNOME to Xfce. That wasn’t the end for improving Kali; The developers have kept on going with the design work, and have more updates:
GNOME There is now a new theme for GNOME users and as an additional bonus, there is a light and dark theme!
With XFCE and GNOME having had a Kali Linux look and feel update, it’s time to go back to the roots (days of backtrack-Linux) and give some love and attention to KDE Plasma. Introducing the dark and light themes for KDE Plasma.

It was intended that both “installer” & “live” could be customized during setup, to select which meta package and desktop environment to use. When they did that, they couldn’t include metapackages beyond default in those images, as it would create too large of an ISO. 
As the packages were not in the image if you selected anything other than the default options it would require network access to obtain the missing packages beyond the default. 
After release, they noticed some users selecting “everything” and then waiting hours for installs to happen. They couldn’t understand why the installs were taking so long.

BUT BEFORE THAT PLEASE DO CHECK THE DISCLAIMER SECTION AT THE TOPMOST MENU.🤨
