linux-headers -> 4.3.0-kali1-686-pae

Hello everybody.

I am a beginner of LinuxKali. I have a below problem:

root@KaliLinx:/home/tom# apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
Reading package lists... Done

E: Unable to locate package linux-headers-4.3.0-kali1-686-pae

root@KaliLinx:/home/tom# uname -r
4.3.0-kali1-686-pae

The settings for /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://http.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib
deb-src http://security.kali.org/kali-security/ sana/updates main contrib non-free

deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib
deb-src http://security.kali.org/kali-security sana/updates main contrib non-free

I tried to modification the settings in sources.list but the result is poor.

Could you please give me some advice/suggestion?

Hi

There are a repository on my /etc/apt/sources.lis

deb http://http.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib
deb http://security.kali.org/kali-security sana/updates main contrib non-free
#deb-src http://security.kali.org/kali-security/ sana/updates main contrib non-free

deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib

deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
# For source package access, uncomment the following line
deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free

What is wrong?

All other entries in your sources.list are false.

Only this entry.

deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free

Hi

I changed sources.list and reboot system. Unfortunately I have still a problem.

I just updated to "Rolling" which is 4.4.0 (is was painful but needed to be done due to the other repos being shutdown in april 2016) (2 laptops on slow wireless and 8hrs later I'm done TFG)

First do a search: apt-cache search linux-headers (apt-cache search linux-headers-4.4)

Then install: apt-get install linux-headers-4.4.0-kali1-all-amd64

I had the same issue when trying to install VirtualBox. What eventually worked for me was to use “apt” in stead of “apt-get.” (I’m not sure whether this is an ideal solution though. I am a complete neophyte—not only to Kali but to Linux in general—so, this is just what eventually worked for me after throwing what ever I could think of at the problem. If anyone more knowledgeable could explain why this works and apt-get doesn’t, and whether it might end up being a Pyrrhic victory—all the talk of broken and uninstallable packages along the way gave me pause—I would love to hear it.)

Code:

apt update apt upgrade apt --upgradable list # to see the packages that for whatever reason were not upgraded. In my case 9, including the kali-linux-full apt install kali-linux-full* # I got some error about uninstallable dependencies when trying without the asterisk apt dist-upgrade reboot

I currently have the exact same issue...I have tried everything to upgrade my headers but nothing works!!!! There must be an expert here to help us?!
2016-04-05
Cryptic-F

I HAVE SOLVED THE ISSUE my friend!!!!!

Add this repository to your sources.list

Code:

deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free

Enter this command

Code:

apt-get update

And the whole of this command

Code:

apt-get install linux-image-$(uname -r|sed 's,[^-]*-[^-]*-,,') linux-headers-$(uname -r|sed 's,[^-]*-[^-]*-,,') broadcom-sta-dkms

When the installation has complete just restart your pc or laptop and enjoy :)

Sorry to hear that. I notice you are running on a 32bit PAE system . Could that make a difference? Recently, I upgraded to 4.4.0 on two installs with this method: first I installed it on a kali host machine to install VirtualBox on it. Then I installed it in the same way on the guest kali machine I installed on that VirtualBox. Unfortunately, the 5 or so year old build I installed all this, and more, on just crashed—while I was running windows 10 of course (I was running about 4 linux systems and 1 windows in dual boot). After I saw your reply today, I tried to do the update again on the kali I am running on VirtualBox on my laptop. I’ll post the commands I used, and the response I got, below—as I suspected, installing kali-linux-full before the dist upgrade was redundant, at least on my current setup.

(After I had removed all but the two rolling repositories from my sources.list file, and performed apt-get update and upgrade.)

So, this procedure has now worked for me on three separate installs pretty much the same way. But, my machines have all been 64 bit. I am not sure whether that could make any difference, but maybe that is worth looking into.

Can't get this to work with Kali 2016.1 persistent installation amd64

thanks so much for this detailed explanation. unfortunately I can't get this (or any other guide) to work for me. I'm running a persistent Live installation of Kali 2016.1 on a 64bit system. After following your guide the final output is still "4.3.0-kali1-amd64". What I am really trying to accomplish here is installing NVIDIA drivers on the system so I can get a faster results while brute-forcing keys (or using a wordlist). The guide that took me down this rabbit hole is this one: http://docs.kali.org/general-use/ins...-on-kali-linux

Is it even possible to do this with a persistent Live installation of kali? If not, how can perform a full installation of Kali 2016.1 onto a USB flash drive (I've tried about 4 ways to do this and none worked)?

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

Recently, I upgraded to 4.4.0 on two installs with this method: first I installed it on a kali host machine to install VirtualBox on it. Then I installed it in the same way on the guest kali machine I installed on that VirtualBox. Unfortunately, the 5 or so year old build I installed all this, and more, on just crashed—while I was running windows 10 of course (I was running about 4 linux systems and 1 windows in dual boot). After I saw your reply today, I tried to do the update again on the kali I am running on VirtualBox on my laptop. I’ll post the commands I used, and the response I got, below—as I suspected, installing kali-linux-full before the dist upgrade was redundant, at least on my current setup.

(After I had removed all but the two rolling repositories from my sources.list file, and performed apt-get update and upgrade.)

So, this procedure has now worked for me on three separate installs pretty much the same way. But, my machines have all been 64 bit. I am not sure whether that could make any difference, but maybe that is worth looking into.

try
apt-cache search kernel|grep headers
and select appropriate headers
then do
apt-get install linux-headers-4.9.0-kali1-all (in my case this was it) worked for me
