Summary0006263: AMD fails update and upgrade
Description

AMD fails on update and upgrade with VirtualBox, But when I use the same image on an Intel machine it Updates and Upgrades perfectly fine.
When ever I try to update it fails with hash sum mismatch, cant even do a new install on AMD based machine without it failing (2019 through to 2020 images both OVA and fresh Installations)

2019.4 and kali-linux-2020.1b-installer-amd64

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Use the VirtualBox OVA Download on an AMD, it lets you login but fails on update and upgrade. does not do the same on Intel Based machine
  2. New Install does not succeed at all on AMD but works fine on Intel (Fails at Select and Install software)
  3. Complete Installation on Intel then carry across to AMD it works fine except the update and upgrade. (Doesnt matter what image I use from 2019 to 2020 on AMD doesnt work)
  4. Try install on AMD Machine it fails at installing products or something like that.
    If you then put the OVA in an Intel machine you can update and upgrade, However try do it on an AMD based machine it fails. OVA installation also fails and so does a new Installation.

Additional Information

Repos for AMD seems to be broken or something in to that effect. Have been battling for days now and found the workaround of putting the virtual machine on my Mac (Intel) then on to my Windows (AMD) machine to do updates and fix problems.

2019.4 image used as well as kali-linux-2020.1b-installer-amd64
