MacBook Pro – Kali Not Showing in Kali-OSX Dual Boot

dual-bootmacbook promojaveunix

Some context:

  • I have a Macbook Pro with OSX Mojave
  • I installed Kali Linux
  • Boot defaulted to Kali
  • If I wanted to boot OSX I had to hold down the option key on boot.
  • When selecting boot drives, Kali never showed up; only OSX.
  • Today boot defaulted to OSX
  • Kali still doesn't appear even though it's installed.

My question: How can I boot Kali now that boot defaults to OSX?

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks to this blog post, I was able to solve this issue using rEFInd.

Basically, rEFInd is a tool that allows you to select what operating system you want to boot with.
