    Kali 2 on BeagleBone Black eMMC (int memory) possible?

    I didn't manage to get a good and working kali install on an sdcard so I was thinking of flashing the eMMC of the baord with the latest wheezy debian.
    http://rcn-ee.net/rootfs/2015-02-19/...-19-2gb.img.xz

    then running:

    Code:
    gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key  ED444FF07D8D0BF6
    gpg -a --export ED444FF07D8D0BF6 | sudo apt-key add -
    
    cat << EOF > /etc/apt/sources.list
    deb http://http.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib
    deb http://security.kali.org/kali-security/ sana/updates main contrib non-free
    EOF
    
    apt-get update
    apt-get dist-upgrade # get a coffee, or 10.
    reboot
    Does anyone have an idea if this might work or bricks my BBB?

    It should have about the same impact as going from wheezy to jessie only risk exists that there are packages used in wheezy that also exists in jessie but not in kali sane.

    unfortunately it doesn't work. it crashed on generating udev.

    Trying to work out a solution
    Code:
    $ sudo dpkg --configure udev
    Setting up udev (215-17+deb8u1) ...
    seems to just hang. no info.


    However.... after a reboot (disconnect power) it came back up.
    dpkg --configure -a
    ran just fine all might be good now.
    running another apt-get update; apt-get upgrade now, see where we end at :P

    Code:
    apt-get update; apt-get upgrade
    apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade
    rm /etc/ssh/ssh_host_*
    dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server
    service ssh restart
    guess I'm all set all runs fine now.
