Summary	0003279: Wrong kernel in installer package (netboot)
Description	When trying to install kali-rolling from netboot image the installation fails due to wrong kernel modules. The installer reports this: No kernel modules were found. This probably is due to a mismatch between the kernel used by this version of the installer and the kernel version available in the archive. If you're installing from a mirror, you can work around this problem by choosing to install a different version of Debian. The install will probably fail to work if you continue without kernel modules. Syslog message: anna[3497]: WARNING **: no packages matching running kernel 4.4.0-kali1-amd64 in archives

rhertzog 2016-05-06 08:50 administrator ~0005192	We're in the process of upgrading to Linux 4.5 and the netboot images have not yet been updated. Updated mini.iso will soon show up in http://http.kali.org/dists/kali-dev/main/installer-amd64/20160506+kali1/images/netboot/
