Editing Grub2 menu entries manually in Linux Mint
For editing/removing boot entries, edit grub.cfg file present in /boot/grub/. To remove extra operating system entry (say Linux Mint 12 installed on sda8) remove these lines from grub.cfg file

Do not run command update-grub after editing/removing/renaming entries in grub.cfg file as this command reconfigures grub.cfg file and will again include all operating systems present on system. 

"Network Mirror", is it required?
Adding Kali Linux mirrors after offline installation
If you installed Kali offline from a CD/DVD or USB (or have chosen not to connect to internet during installation), you probably have an empty sources.list file with just 2 lines on it (CDROM’s). ... you won’t get the mirrors or repositories during a hard disk install added to your sources.list file. This will cause issues in the future when seeking new or updated software packages from the Kali repos.
