About

Kali Linux is an open-source, Debian-based Linux distribution geared towards various information security tasks, such as Penetration Testing, Security Research, Computer Forensics and Reverse Engineering. You can take any Linux and install pentesting tools on it, but you have to set the tools up manually and configure them. Kali is optimized to reduce the amount of work, so a professional can just sit down and go. A version of Kali is always close to you, no matter where you need it. Mobile devices, Docker, ARM, Amazon Web Services, Windows Subsystem for Linux, Virtual Machine, bare metal, and others are all available. With the use of metapackages, optimized for the specific tasks of a security professional, and a highly accessible and well documented ISO customization process, it's always easy to generate an optimized version of Kali for your specific needs. Whether you are a seasoned veteran or a novice, our documentation will have all the information you will need to know.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It installs? Maybe it's easy if you installed all of it, so that it automatically takes you to the GUI with the first boot. I did the minimal install OS on a DVD.

Cons

  • If you get the base OS version, you can't do squat. It's all locked down, even denying permissions to root. And support is very slim compared to Slackware. On Slackware's page, it has tons of basics and step by step instructions for doing things. It's fully operating, running dhclient to get an IP address, while you try that with Rocky, it says command not found, as it does on almost everything. Don't try Xorg -config because, guess what? Command not found. It's raring to go with Slackware, it all WORKS. And I know because I've been using it for more than 15 years. I suppose if you loaded All of Rocky it would work, the full install. But it's apparently ALL or NOTHING with Rocky Linux.
