kali linux?

[carguy86]

i have a little old acer laptop and i was thinking of putting kali on it (for fun at home) would it work if i created a live "usb" on a hdd?

You can put the live cd on to the HDD as a live cd instead of installing it. Don't install kali because its impossible to upgrade due to the servers are always down. its easier to just use a USB flash drive. boot a live linux off usb flash, then use dd to write the iso to the HDD if thats what you want to do

You can use Live CD or USB - or run it in VirtualBox.

If its an old computer Kali in Virtual Box is not a good choice. You are way better off installing directly on disk
