How to do it...
To bring an existing Kali Linux installation up to date, you will do the following:
- From the main Kali desktop, let's click on the terminal icon in the upper-left part of the screen:

Since we are already logged in as the root, we will not require any elevation of privileges using the su or sudo commands.
- From the Command Prompt, type this:
apt-get update

Kali Linux Command Prompt
After the initial installation, this process could take several minutes to complete.
- Once complete, we will actually upgrade the system by entering the following at the Command Prompt:
apt-get upgrade

Kali Linux Command Prompt
- After a minute or two, you will get a screen explaining what will be upgraded and what needs to be installed for the upgrades to occur. When ready to continue, type Y and press Enter:

This process will take quite some time to complete, so please be patient as your system upgrades.
- Once complete, we will reboot the system to ensure we have a fresh running environment. To continue, type this:
shutdown -r now
