How to Install Kali Linux on a flashdrive using VirtualBox

Hello guys!
In this tutorial you will learn how to install Kali Linux (Next Generation Backtrack OS ) on a USB Flash Drive.
What are the specs for  running kali Linux
Linux is a light weight system desgined for any pc ,  in fact it can even run on a toaster not a joke all smart devices use Linux based operating system so don't worry about your machine being slow .I am sure that if you connect to get her some transistors you can still run Linux on it.

So first of all you’ll need:
1) Virtual Box ( Latest )
2) Virtual Box Extension Pack  ( To mount the Flash Driver for installation )
3) An 8 Gb USB Flash Drive ( 16GB if availuble)
4) KALI Linux .ISO 
Open Virtual Box,  Go to the settings of your Virtual OS, then to the USB Tab:
To add your USB first enable and tick the two check boxes, then press the usb add button and choose your USB device.
NOTE: If your device doesn’t appear on the add list, make sure your USB port is 2.0 
Now we need to mount the .ISO file on Virtual Box for that goto the Storage tab on the same windows. If you have an existing storage controller click on it. Then press the small CD Button, click the “Choose Virtual CD/DVD” and navigate to your KALI .ISO Image. You have mounted your .ISO image.
Ok we are set to go! Click OK and on the main Virtual Box screen press the Start Button, Be sure that you have selected the current OS:
  
After starting your Virtual OS, A KALI Linux starter screen will appear. Select the ‘Graphical Install’ from the menu and press Enter. 
After you’ve reached the Partition Part, you will see 4 options. If you want to setup the partitions manually then go with the “Manual” option otherwise I recommend use the “Guided – Use Entire Disk” option. On the next screen you will have to select on which drive you want to install KALI, As we want to set it up on our Flash Drive, Select your USB Drive from the list.
Once the setup finishes, Close the Virtual OS. Restart Windows, Plug IN your Flash Drive and boot from it. 
You now have a Portable Penetration Testing OS in your Pocke
