First burn the kali linux image to a dvd(best option and recommended by me also)..............else you can use rufus to create a bootabel pendrive.

link for rufus:https://rufus.akeo.ie/

Now boot through these drive and proceed as done below :
  • You will see the kali boot menu.............select GRAPHICAL install for most basic and easy installation of kali.
  • Here select the language that suits you the best--------->continue.
  • Now, select the region to which you belong 
  • Now select the keymap.........i.e. the keyboard type
  • Now the setup will detect the hardwares in your system and confige the network(Here you may need to configure your network if you are using ethernet or wifi just connect to it and click next this will help you to ease the installation process. If you are not having it just go to next step i.e. skip that part by pressing escape key or clicking on continue)          "This part is important if you want a working network in your kali O.S. "
  • Now enter the hostname of your system........this is the name of your sytem
  • Now enter the domain name for your system......leave it blank if you didnt know what to write.(domain means your work area)
  • Now comes , setting password for your root user............by default it is "toor"  leave it blank if you want to proceed with toor as your root user password.
  • A new window will ask you to make new user beside root.......here you can add new users with any name
  • now, it will ask for username of your account.....provide it with a suitable name of your choice.
  • and define/set the password for that created user
  • Now it will configure the clock.....if it fails it will ask you to enter your time zone.
  • Here comes the disk configuration part------->  select guided-use the whole disk(if you are installing kali on the main system with no other operating system..........else select manual (to manually select the drive from a list of existing drives for installation) -------select that disk..................and continue the partitioner...................................."i have used vmware screenshots to show practically how it looks as i cannot take these while installing in real machine"
     
  • now comes the partition scheme........select all files in one partition for hastle free partitioning of disk..........this will automatically create home, swap etc.
  • select finish partition and write changes to disk and again choose yes on next screen to reconfirm the changes to be done.


  • The setup will be installing the system on your device........it a long task 10-30 minutes depending on your hardware capabilities.
  • Next screen will ask for "configuring the packet manager"......................if you are connected to a working network(internet connection) select yes in "use a network mirror"
  • Now it will ask for a http proxy(used for connecting for a proxy server insted of main server for configuration).........it is for advance user......leave it blank.
  • Also it will install the GRUB bootloader into your system so as to support multiple operating system..............and allows you to select one of them during boot-up.
  • On the  next screen you will see the setup will ask you for installing the GRUB to MBR(master boot record)................if kali is the only operating system in your machine select yes else no as it can make your other os undetectable during boot-up  but you can booth to that OS later from GRUB................................................i have selected yes.
