Summary0000381: Starting the VM first time
Description

When you configure Oracle VM VirtualBox and start Kali, it shows the first option as i686 which confuses the users a lot.

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Download i386 ISO from Kali.org
  2. Configure VirtualBox for this ISO
  3. Start the VM
  4. The boot menu presents some options, the first of which says i686
  5. If you try to continue, the system halts
  6. But you have infact downloaded i386 version

Remedy needed: Just the wordings should be changed from i686 to i386. But I have mentioned this issue as high priority and major severity only since this is the first screen any VM user would notice and then go in loops trying to fix it.

Additional Information

OR, there should be a mention that for VMs only the Install option should be used and it should NOT be tried to go in for the Live DVD version
