Banana Pro image does not boot, mounting problem? #128
Description
Hello, I ran into a problem when installing Kali to my Banana Pro. I tried the official Kali Linux ARM images as well as building my own with the scripts from this repository, both produced the same outcome.
When powering up the board with only a keyboard, a mouse and an HDMI cable attached to it, it takes a few seconds for the Monitor to receive a signal. After a second of black, the two Tux icons from the beginning of the boot sequence show up, but then it freezes, no text is displayed.
I connected to the onboard serial console and got the output from U-Boot. The full output can be seen here: serial-output.txt
At the end, these error messages appear:
<27>systemd[1]: Failed to determine whether /sys is a mount point: Bad file descriptor
[ 5.420697] systemd[1]: Failed to determine whether /sys is a mount point: Bad file descriptor
<27>systemd[1]: Failed to determine whether /proc is a mount point: Bad file descriptor
[ 5.437259] systemd[1]: Failed to determine whether /proc is a mount point: Bad file descriptor
<27>systemd[1]: Failed to determine whether /dev is a mount point: Bad file descriptor
[ 5.453690] systemd[1]: Failed to determine whether /dev is a mount point: Bad file descriptor
[!!!!!!] Failed to mount early API filesystems, freezing.
<24>systemd[1]: Freezing execution.
[ 5.477414] systemd[1]: Freezing execution.
The timing of the freeze messages on the last three lines matches with the appearance of the Tux icons on the monitor.
Did anybody encounter something like that before? Any suggestions on what to try next?
PS: I hope I'm at the right place to ask stuff like this.
PPS: I am sure that all the hardware I use is okay. I'm using a 5V/2A power supply which should be enough and when I flash Bananian, Raspbian for Banana Pro and other distributions to the same card, everything works just fine... Just Kali is giving me a hard time, so I'd appreciate every and all help.
