Hi
I am new to this.
I tried to install kali linux from the iso file i downloaded straight from their website.
But it will not open it and come up with attached screen shot error message.
It downloads as its a archive, but no matter which way i try to open it or directly open it from virtualbox is comes up with the error message.
See screen shot attached.
What im I doing wrong?
Thanks

Re: iso will not open
The ISO seems to be corrupted. Re-download the ISO and make sure you compare the SHA or the MD5 checksums with what's published on their website.

Re: iso will not open
If the ISO is not corrupted then "VERR_NOT_SUPPORTED" can also mean that the file fails basic ISO compliance checks, such as not being a multiple of 512 bytes. Technically it should be an exact multiple of 2048 bytes.
