Problem loading GUI

[adamthebron]

Hi, i got the Kali image for the raspberry pi 2, and it loaded fine. I logged on with root and toor, and when i went to start the GUI with start, it comes up with:

mktemp: failed to create file via template '/tmp/serverauth.XXXXXXXX' : Read-only file system
xauth: error in locking authority file
xauth: error in loading authority file /root/.Xauthority
xauth: error in locking authority file /root//.Xauthority

X: cannot start /tmp/.X11-unix (no such file or dictionary), aborting
xinit: giving up
xinit: unable to connect to X server: connection refused
xinit:server error
auth: error in locking authority file /root/.Xauthority

guess you pull the plug while the boot partition was mounted.

try this
mount the partition again to check the boot.txt

mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /boot

should be pointing to your sd card. if not, fix it, reboot


if problem still exist try this lines

mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /boot
mkimage -A arm -T script -C none -d /boot/boot.txt /boot/boot.scr

(and if you crashed before this thread then better run fsck)
