After a lot of reflection and experimentation I strongly feel that the best focus for the Boost is on all major operating systems, that the primary purpose of the Boost should, in fact, be exactly that. Linux is first and foremost a server operating system and that’s how we should first learn about it. If people want to learn about Kali as well that’s fine, just later on their own time. Learning Ubuntu Server will make them all the more prepared if they do decide to learn Kali later.
While I plan on mentioning VMware Workstation Pro, I’ve decided to use
VirtualBox for the boost because it works enough and is free. It also
has a much more powerful command line and has good support from
libvirt (which I eventually want use for fluff). For Mac M1 users
I’ll just tell them that VMware Fusion does what VirtualBox does not
(nor has any plans of ever doing).
