Hello,
I'm installing Kali Linux to a USB to boot to on my Series 3 Chromebook. I'm following the instructions given here: http://docs.kali.org/armel-armhf/ins...ung-chromebook and I have that exact Chromebook with the Exynos 5250 1.7GH and 2GB RAM.
The steps I've taken:
- Downloaded kali-linux-1.0.6-armhf.img.xz
- Checked the SHA1 sum
- Verified location of the USB at /dev/sda
- Ran the dd command with no issues
When I get to the steps
Typing either of the add commands gives this:cgpt repair /dev/sdb
cgpt add -i 1 -S 1 -T 5 -P 5 -l KERN-A /dev/sda
cgpt add -i 2 -S 1 -T 5 -P 10 -l KERN-B /dev/sda
ERROR: cgpt add: GptSanityCheck() returned 2: GPT_ERROR_INVALID_HEADERS
Bill Richardson, a Google employee, in this google groups discussion told someone with similar issues that "At present then, there is (or should be!) no way to directly boot a
non-Google image from a removable drive." He later says it works on the Series 5 and Acer Chromebooks -- but not the Series 3.
Has anyone actually got Kali working on this Chromebook? If so, did these steps work for you?
Thanks
