Installing Kali Linux as Guest OS in KVM Hypervisor

[Kaushal Shriyan]

Hi,

I have run the below command to install Kali Linux using
linux-2020.4-installer-amd64.iso from https://www.kali.org/downloads/

#virt-install --name kalilinux --memory 4096 --vcpus=2
--location=/linuxkvmaddgbdisk/kali-linux-2020.4-installer-amd64.iso,kernel=install.amd/gtk/vmlinuz,initrd=install.amd/gtk/initrd.gz
--network=bridge:br0 --os-type=linux --os-variant=debian9 --graphics=none
--extra-args "console=ttyS0" -v --disk
path=/linuxkvmaddgbdisk/kalilinux.img,size=50

I am not able to get the root login prompt when I run the below command to
set IP and hostname for the guest OS. Am I missing any parameters from the
above virt-install command to install Kali Linux as Guest OS in KVM
Hypervisor?

#virsh console kalilinux
Connected to domain kalilinux
Escape character is ^]

Any help will be highly appreciated. I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks in Advance.

Best Regards,

Kaushal
