Kali linux on a Raspberry pi 2

[Koronter]

Hello,
recently I've been trying to get my adafruit 2.8 inch touchscreen to work with Kali Linux 2.1.2 for the raspberry pi 2.
Unfortunately i ran into a confusing couple of errors,
the Pi boots normally and the screen runs through several lines of start up commands but stops at emergency mode.
Personally i don't know why this is as it only started after two boots of the pi normally (with the adafruit kernel installed).
However to run in default mode it says to type Control D.
Afterwards it runs through more setup until it stops at an error with the line:

Code: Select all

failed to start ... root device.
see 'systemctl stat...ice' for more detail.

Without touching it it proceeds to a command line login with the lines:

Code: Select all

Kali GNU/Linux Rolling kali ttyl

i perform the login for the root account and again it stops on after testing the wlan input, after searching online i found i could start the GUI manually with

Code: Select all

startx

but attempting this only leads to an error in:

Code: Select all

mktemp: failed to create file via template '/tmp/serverauth.XXXXXXXXXX' : Read-only file system

Code: Select all

xauth: error in locking authority file

Code: Select all

xauth: timeout in locking authority file /root/.authority 

I used several guides online such as starting

Code: Select all

Startxfce4

deleting the file

Code: Select all

/tmp/.tX0-lock

Furthermore i have tried all suggestions on this link:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions ... 175495810/

Again this is on kali linux any help would be well recieved.

Sincerely Koronter

I would try the Kali forums: http://forums.kali.org/

Does it work under Raspbian (we can do support for Raspbian issues, but not for non-supported OS's like Kali).
