Guest Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Im bringing this thread back to life as I've encounted the same problems again with the current kali 1.0.9 raspberry pi build. https://www.kali.org/news/kali-tools-website-launched-1-0-9-released/ It simply won't boot, the red and green lights on the pi remain static and there is not display output. I have tried: Replacing the bootcode.bin and start.elf, start_cd.elf, start_x.elf files which previously worked as per here http://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/22573/failing-to-boot-kali-on-b-model-pi - no go. Reformatting the SD card numerous times with different methods. Installing NOOBS (basic rasp pi image) to rule out the fact of a dodgy SD card / rasp pi. - Boots fine. Ive tried installing the image using root@kali:~ dd if=kali-pi.img of=/dev/sdb bs=512k - copies files across but still not booting. Ive tried installing the image by simply copying and pasting the contents of the img file to the Sd card - confirmed files copied across but still not booting. Any ideas?

Guest Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 OK Total noob here. What i was doing is a dd of the image to the partition itself (disk4s1) and not the disk (disk4). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
