Kali Linux issue #62

Closed paryska99 closed 6 months ago

paryska99 commented 6 months ago

Kali Linux is supported as listed by clover dual boot, but I don't know what is meant by that. Did you actually manage to launch an installed and not live booted Kali correctly?

After Kali Linux install and passing through clover then grub launches and then Kali through grub. Amd driver cannot load on an installed instance of Kali on my end if it launches through grub and that seems to be the only way to launch.

Does this dual boot clover repo mean support for Kali Live instead?

You can edit the config.plist and find the entry for Kali and update it to point to the correct EFI file. Currently its is configured like this -
