I downloaded and installed Kali Linux Full Rolling edition.
I read the manuals and figured out that I need to download the source files for my kernel before I can install 3rd party drivers and patches.
I followed the instructions in https://docs.kali.org/development/re...i-linux-kernel
My sources.list file is;
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
I did the apt-get update apt-get upgrade apt-get dist-upgrade and rebooted
I then typed uname -a and get;
So my Kernel is version 4.12, yet the Kali Docs sayLinux localhost 4.12.0-kali2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.12.12-2kali1 (2017-09-13) x86_64 GNU/LinuxI assume that because I am using the rolling edtion of Kali it is using an older version of the kernel than the dev version uses.We assume that the linux-source-4.9 binary package has been installed
Is it possible to update my kernel to the latest kernel using the instructions in the Docs without breaking my installation of rolling ?
What exactly is rolling ? If I am going to be patching drivers do I need the dev version ?
Can I reconfigure my rolling edition to become a dev version ?
