Hi there! You must use the "rpi-update" to update kernel and modules misterIf not installed, "apt-cache search rpi-update"
Hello,
I've noticed that "apt update" and "apt upgrade" never update the kernel on the raspberry pi. I guess this is by design, am I correct? I've tried installing the linux-image-armmp and I get a nice new kernel, but the raspberry always boots with the old kernel (by the way, I have to manually mount /boot before installing this package, otherwise apt happily copies the new kernel into /boot the mountpoint, instead of /boot the FAT partition). I've tried renaming the new kernel file into kernel7.img (I have a rpi 3), but all I get is an unbootable pi.
Are there some docs on how to upgrade the kernel on kali for the raspberry pi? I've done quite a bit of googling but couldn't find anything.
Thanks,
Silla

Hello,
thanks for your answer, but rpi-update is nowhere to be found. I think that is a raspbian command.

hello, have you try dist-upgrade instead of upgrade ?
Yes, still no joy.
Try this:
Then:sudo curl -L --output /usr/bin/rpi-update https://raw.githubusercontent.com/He...ter/rpi-update && sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/rpi-update
In my case it works:sudo rpi-update

Why don't you use my kernel?

It does but you still need the drivers.
I've just compiled them on my pi without any problems but I cannot test it without the adapter.
Why don't you give this a try:
Install my kernel from here: https://whitedome.com.au/re4son/re4son-kernel/
download, compile and install the drivers:
This all works on my test bed.Code:cd /usr/local/src git clone https://github.com/Myria-de/mt7610u_wifi_sta_v3002_dpo_20130916.git cd mt7610u_wifi_sta_v3002_dpo_20130916 make sudo make install
I've read to continue with the following, but haven't tested it:
You probale want to copy the directory "mt7610u_wifi_sta_v3002_dpo_20130916" away so you can easily reinstall the drivers if you have to.Code:sudo make install sudo mkdir /etc/RT2870STA ##This should probably read: "sudo mkdir /etc/Wireless/RT2870STA/" sudo cp RT2870STA.dat /etc/Wireless/RT2870STA/RT2870STA.dat
Please let us know how you go.

Same driver I've been using. The driver is from 2013 and when I compile it as a module and load it, no monitor mode and when I unplug the adapter, it locks up the kernel tight and I have to reboot.
