The Kali daily is missing, last updated 9 days ago.

The weekly is available at: https://image-nethunter.kali.org/nethunter-fs/kali-weekly/kali-nethunter-2025.W18-rolling-rootfs-full-amd64.tar.xz

So you could edit the script and change:

BASE_URL=hps://image-nethunter.kali.org/nethunter-fs/kali-daily
to:
BASE_URL=hps://image-nethunter.kali.org/nethunter-fs/kali-weekly

Note: the hps in the BASE_URL should be replaced with https.

Thanks you, but now I’got this error :

BASE_URL=hps://image-nethunter.kali.org/nethunter-fs/kali-weekly/kali-nethunter-daily-dev-rootfs-full-arm64.tar.xz: Scheme missing

4

I removed the tt from the https because the forum on here was displaying it as a link not the full URL.

In BASE_URL, change hps to https and it will work.

Already changed but still give me the same error

6

BASE_URL=https://image-nethunter.kali.org/nethunter-fs/kali-weekly/kali-nethunter-2025.W18-rolling-rootfs-full-arm64.tar.xz: Scheme missing.

You need to update the base url and the image name, because the image name refers to the daily image too.

Make sure the BASE_URL is h ttps://image-nethunter.kali.org/nethunter-fs/kali-weekly

And the image name is: IMAGE_NAME=kali-nethunter-weekly-dev-rootfs-${wimg}-${SYS_ARCH}.tar.xz

That’s Ok now. There was a typo, now it’s fixed. Than you very much
