That doesn't help me much any more, because almost everything I have around here is UEFI, and I don't want to use Legacy Boot. The good news is that it works just fine on MBR systems. The bad news is that this image will not boot on UEFI firmware systems, unless you change the system to 'Legacy Boot' mode. It is a net-install image, which means that you must have an internet connection to install it, because that tiny ISO only contains enough to boot and run the installer, it has to get absolutely everything else from the network. The ISO image is only 32MB - that is really small. The Kali Mini distribution is basically the same as the Debian 'tiny' distribution (with the repositories changed, of course). Moving on to the Mini distribution, the news is not quite as good, at least initially. OK, that's enough about the Kali Light distribution. When it was finished, I finally had all of the same menu categories that the Gnome 3 version had. Installing the full package took a pretty good bit of time, more than 30 minutes on my Acer Aspire E11. That will bring in another 1,200 or so packages and use an additional 3GB of disk space. If you want to get the complete contents of the full distribution installed into this Xfce desktop version, use apt-get install kali-linux-full. That is still nowhere near what is included in the full distribution, though.
