You can install it by mounting your memory card to your linux PC, then chroot to it. There you can install everything
Many thanks.
I did mount the Kali file system on a Linux lC and installed metasploit successfully. I couldn't upgrade Kali in the chroot environment.I received the following error.

Try these commands before chroot,
(Replace <chrootdir> with your kali memory card rootfs mount point)
mount -t proc none <chrootdir>/proc
mount -t sysfs none <chrootdir>/sys
mount -o bind /dev <chrootdir>/dev
mount -o bind /dev/pts <chrootdir>/dev/pts
mount -o bind /tmp <chroodir>/tmp
Now chroot to your kali rootfs, then reinstall your application again.
After exiting chroot, unmount all the above mount points.

Hello
I tried to install kali on a 8 GB sd card but I get the following error
"Target file system doesn't have requested /sbin/init.
No init found. Try passing init= bootarg
can't access tty: job control turned off
(initramfs)
"
I know that this error was seen before, but no one it's saying how they get rid of it.
I checked the partitions with garted and also written the image with dd rescue and ddrescue, same error, also reinstalled maemo and u-boot and tried again, same error.

What I am doing wrong ?
Thank you for any help.
If your boot parameters are correct, the image may not be written to the sdcard properly or our sdcard is bad. Are you able to chroot to your sdcard?
Please paste here the output of 'fdisk -l' command.
Hello,
I have a new 8GB class 10 sd card, I don't think is bad.
Apparently I can chroot
"Nokia-N900:~# mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /mnt/kali/
Nokia-N900:~# ls /mnt/kali/
bin etc lost+found opt run srv usr
boot home media proc sbin sys var

Here is the output from fdisk -l
