When i booted my raspberry pi with the micro SD card i got the message "---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000000b" and a couple minutes later: "random: crng init done". It has been stuck on this message for hours now and the Kali login screen still hasn't booted. When i plug in my keyboard to the raspberry pi, it receives no power and is inactive. I tried re-installing the software on the micro SD to no avail. I'm not sure what steps to take and any help would be appreciated .
    At boot, the kernel waits for mouse movements to initialize the random number generator.
    Kernel messages on boot:Code: Select all
    sudo dmesg | less

    The problem:Code: Select all
    kernel: random: crng init done

    The solution:Code: Select all
    sudo apt install haveged
    sudo systemctl enable haveged
