Hello kali forums. :D
I recently installed full Kali Linux x64 2016.1 with rEFInd on my Macbook Air 11"
It doesn't have any Ethernet port so I burned the iso on to a usb and installed kali on a 20gb partition.
I then had to install the network drivers and that's where I ran into a problem.
What I have tried
Installing bcmwl-kernel-source with dependencies which was not successful with the error code:
Module build for the currently running kernel was skipped since the
kernel source for this kernel does not seem to be installed.
iwconfig
root@kali:~# iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
ifconfig
root@kali:~# ifconfig wlan0 up
wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
lspci
root@kali:~# lspci -vnn | grep Network
03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4360 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter [14e4:43a0] (rev 03)
Subsystem: Apple Inc. BCM4360 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter [106b:0117]
1.) Is the OS able to detect it?
Yes
2.) Is there an interface?
No.
If you need me to try anything else just tell me.
And thank you for the help, I appreciate every single one person here. :D
