With over 1700 ethical hacking and pentesting tools pre-installed, BlackArch Linux 2017-03-01 is out and it’s based on the Arch Linux 2017-03-01 install medium released earlier, which has dropped support for 32-bit installations. However, BlackArch Linux 2017-03-01 is available with separate Live ISOs for both 32-bit and 64-bit computers, as well as a 64-bit OVA image that you can use in either the VirtualBox, QEMU, or VMware virtualization software.
