    Installation steps:

    http://docs.kali.org/kali-on-arm/install-kali-linux-arm-raspberry-pi

    ARM download site:

    https://www.offensive-security.com/kali-linux-arm-images/

    If `dd`ing from OSX do the [following for speed](http://daoyuan.li/solution-dd-too-slow-on-mac-os-x/):

    ```bash
    $ dd bs=1m if=kali-2.1.2-rpi2.img of=/dev/rdisk2
    7000+0 records in
    7000+0 records out
    7340032000 bytes transferred in 514.267776 secs (14272782 bytes/sec) # fast!
    ```

    I had a 32GB SD card, this image transform it to a 7GB memory. To fix to the following (inspired by [this](https://linhost.info/2015/05/expand-the-root-partition-in-kali-linux-for-the-raspberry-pi/):

    ```
    $ cd /boot
    $ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lgierth/pimesh/master/files/raspi-expand-rootfs.sh
    # Check the partitions
    # replace $PART_START with 125001 if fdisk -l shows:
    ...
    /dev/mmcblk0p2 125001 60367871 60242871 28.7G 83 Linux
    ...
    $ chmod -x raspi-expand-rootfs.sh
    $ sh raspi-expand-rootfs.sh
    $ reboot
    ```

    After successful reboot, run:

    ```
    $ resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p2
    ```
