If anyone would like to run Parrot Security here's someof the links I've used to learn about Parrot Security 4.8:
parrotlinux.org
parrotlinux.org
docs.parrotlinux.org
cctools.readthedocs.io
Whatever you do, do "NOT" run apt-get on a Parrot system the documentation says not to.
If you want to upgrade Parrot run:
sudo parrot-upgrade
One more thing.
It might be a good idea to download the Kali Linux Penetration Testing Book.

Now, if you decide to install Parrot and your in a dual or triple boot with other Linux distros here is a heads up.
The Debian installer that comes with Parrot regenerates the swap partitions of the other distros swap partitions that are on your Linux box.
When that happens it sometimes breaks the UUID in the /etc/fstab/ file and causes a start job to start running on a Debian system takes longer to boot than normal.
To fix that you have to run blkid and compare it to the output of your /etc/fstab/ file.
Compare what blkid has to your fstab file and edit it accordingly.
For example if blkid gives you:
/dev/sda/ UUID is 425eoff61733321
swap
/dev/sdb/ UUID is 67455fob229163
swap
But your fstab file returns:
/dev/sda/ UUID 425e0ff61733321
swap
/deb/sdb UUID 425ffe087944325
swap
Than you would change the 425ffe087944325 to 67455f0b229163 in nano or in any other text editor of your choice.
Upon changing the uuid that is correct in the output of blkid and upon reboot your Debian system should no longer give you the message that a start job is running and hold up the system for 1 minute and 30 seconds.
This has happened to me twice and this fix worked.
