I installed GNU/Linux Kali on my Early-2015 MacBook Pro (Mojave) by following the instructions on the Kali official website for dual boot. Linux runs fine but it boots by default. When I went to boot into Macintosh HD from the boot menu, I noticed my new Linux OS was not showing, so I held off on changing macOS to default.
The steps I followed for the installation were:
- Resize 500 GB partition to 450 GB with
diskutil apfs resizeContainer
- Download contents of kali-linux-2020.4-live-amd64.iso and burn into USB drive with
dd
- Boot into boot menu (hold down option key during power-on)
- Boot from USB
- Follow installation instructions (Guided - use the largest continuous free space)
Any ideas what could be wrong?
