Making filesystem fail when change image size #760

Open PhatthanhtuHN opened 7 years ago

PhatthanhtuHN commented 7 years ago

When I use Kali Linux and install kali-linux-full metapackage (because I don't know how to install Broadcom 4330 Wireless driver for use aircrack-ng for pentesting), it have error "You don't have enough free space in /var/cache/apt/archives/.", so I create a new image file by change the "image size" to 4095 MB. But when I press install, it have error "Making file system ... fail" after making new disk image. My device is Sony Xperia LT28h, and I set the installation path in sdcard, which free 11GB. I installed BusyBox, set the "PATH variable" is /system/xbin and update ENV, but I still have above error. Can you teach me how to fix it? Thanks! I'm just a beginner, so sorry for my bad English and my bad experience.

You've to mount an sdcard manually!

Create 2partition in your sdcard 2.5GB FAT32 rest ext4 then install the kali linux in a image on FAT32 system. start it. then find the partition of ext4 storage and run this command in terminal emulator( in Android) ``` mount /dev/block/mmcblk1pX /data/local/mnt #mnt is default mount point


This should work!

Many thanks, can you show me how to do it step by step (with picture, or video)? Sorry for inconvenient, but I'm just a beginner :( Sorry for my bad English and my bad experience.

use the default 2GB img or do a partition installation

PhatthanhtuHN commented 7 years ago

That mean I cannot extend the "image size" to 4095 MB?

Anan5a commented 7 years ago

You can if you have pc ;) Make a 2GB image. then connect sd card in pc then use a disk image resizer software. Done :)
