Hello, I have an old laptop that I want to use for kali linux. I went through the installation process but after powering on my machine it sends me to GNU GRUB version 2.06. I have seen many threads about this, but I couldn't find one for my version of kali linux. I have version 6.0.0 kali3 amd64. I will list the thread where a user had a similar issue as me, just with an older version. I am just a beginner and I am sorry if my question is stupid.

Please help me asap | Kali Gnu Grub Bootloader v2.02 | Page 2 | Linux.org

in GNU GRUB I see grub>,
when I type set, the prefix is (hd0,gpt1)/boot/grub
when I type ls: (proc) (hd0) (hd0,gpt3) (hd0,gpt2), (hd0,gpt1) (cd0)

Thank you
 


 
No question is stupid, but I would highly recommend you install a "Beginner" type of Linux instead of Kali - Kali is designed for experienced users - If you are learning Ethical Hacking in school I would use Parrot over Kali - IMHO it is not as buggy - if you are going to use Kali as a daily platform I would switch to Linux Mint, or any of the Ubuntu flavors to start out with
 
Have you read the Kali documentation yet? This is the important bit....
This from the Kali documentation [what this means is you have to be Linux competent to install and use Kali]

Is Kali Linux Right For You?


As the distribution’s developers, you might expect us to recommend that everyone should be using Kali Linux. The fact of the matter is, however, that Kali is a Linux distribution specifically geared towards professional penetration testers and security specialists, and given its unique nature, it is NOT a recommended distribution if you’re unfamiliar with Linux or are looking for a general-purpose Linux desktop distribution for development, web design, gaming, etc.
Even for experienced Linux users, Kali can pose some challenges. Although Kali is an open source project, it’s not a wide-open source project, for reasons of security. The development team is small and trusted, packages in the repositories are signed both by the individual committer and the team, and - importantly - the set of upstream repositories from which updates and new packages are drawn is very small. Adding repositories to your software sources which have not been tested by the Kali Linux development team is a good way to cause problems on your system.
