I haven't had much luck using the rolling repo listed at http://docs.kali.org/general-use/kal...t-repositories
On one, it was a fresh install of 64-bit 2016.1. Perhaps I initially updated it using the default repos (I don't recall), but then I edited the /etc/apt/sources.list and commented out the two default repos, and then added:
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free
(so to confirm, the above line was the ONLY active entry in my sources.list file)
Then I do a 'apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade', and it keeps getting stuck (more like looping, as if it's trying to do a GET over and over again on the same file).
In another case, it was an existing Kali I've had installed for a while:
DISTRIB_ID=Kali
DISTRIB_RELEASE=2.0
DISTRIB_CODENAME=sana
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Kali GNU/Linux 2.0"
PRETTY_NAME="Kali GNU/Linux 2.0 (sana)"
NAME="Kali GNU/Linux"
ID=kali
VERSION="2.0 (sana)"
VERSION_ID="2.0"
I did the same thing (commented out the default sources.list entries and added the rolling one), I kept running into issues, then tried with a 'apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -f' , then at some point in retrying it looked like it was done and to test I rebooted and it wouldn't boot up.
So am I doing this right or should I have more than one line in my /etc/sources.list file.
I must be doing something wrong as I don't see other people having all kinds of issues.
Thanks
