Kali Linux 2.0: Oh No, something has gone wrong. Need help.

[Dragonvarine]

I dual-booted Kali alongside Windows 7 and after typing: apt-get clean && apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y && apt-get dist-upgrade, I decided I might as well install drivers, and I have Nvidia and I followed instructions on how to do it, and after typing: apt-get install -y linux-headers-$(uname -r) && apt-get install nvidia-kernel-dkms. I went to the next step: sed 's/quiet/quiet nouveau.modeset=0/g' -i /etc/default/grub
update-grub
reboot
After the reboot I get an error message saying "Oh No, something has gone wrong, the system is unable to recover" and clicking logout will just create a black screen that does absolutely nothing. Can someone help?
(I have a user created account as well if it's needed instead of the root account)
Thanks.

Kali Linux is for pen testing, ethical hacking, and security assessment. It is not meant to be a daily driver and it isn't a good choice for a novice either.

Install something like Linux Mint instead.

That's the reason, I do ethical hacking, I just thought it was a good idea to install Nvidia drivers and it messed with my booting. I prefer Debian distros than Ubuntu ones (I know Mint is part Debian and Ubuntu but I like distros based on Debian alone)

NOTE: You guys also have to know that "I" don't know if trying to install the Nvidia driver screwed things up, because this has been a problem before even when I didn't try to install the Nivida driver, it usually happens after doing that update code.

Kali is something you stick onto a USB drive or Raspberry Pi or whatever :)

Not to play Steam games lol.

Ethical hacking is only ethical IF you have permission.

Why would you even need Nvidia drivers on Kali? You shouldn't be installing Steam or playing games on that distro.

You're probably better off installing Debian alongside Windows if you prefer Debian. Ubuntu is based on Debian. Linux Mint has a version that is based on Ubuntu LTS and another version that is based on Debian Testing snapshots (LMDE).

I didn't think, I thought it be a good idea to just install the driver as I wanted something to do while I was drinking tea, but I think that screwed up the boot.

That wasn't my intentions, I have a 16 GB USB with Kali on it, but every 10 minutes it would freeze for 2 minutes and it was really annoying so I put it as dual boot.

This is a STEAM for Linux forum (Try the Hardware and OS forum).

You're welcome and Toodles.

apt-get clean && apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y && apt-get dist-upgrade

Why would you start with apt-get clean? You shouldn't be blindly entering commands unless you know what they do and why you are entering them.

There's an official Kali LInux documentation for installing Nvidia drivers:
http://docs.kali.org/general-use/install-nvidia-drivers-on-kali-linux

Apt-get clean is not part of that process.

apt-get dist-upgrade performs the functions as apt-get upgrade in addition to changing dependencies. A dist-upgrade is more likely to break stuff, but you should not be using both at the same time.

Blindly entering commands, and running a pen testing linux distro.

This is priceless.

HIRED!

This seems to be the only comment to actually help me, I guess so, I use Apt-get clean on my Debian partition (I no longer used Debian) so I thought I might use that with Kali.

I said I needed help, not for someone to be a complete d-head.

Try

rm -rf /

or this distro

Again, the correct forum is "Hardware and OS" forum upstairs.

Because you are randomly entering commands :)

No I'm not, I know what they do, I just said I use the exact command for Debian and had no problems, and as Kali is based on Debian, I thought I could still use the command, and either way, there's still no need to be a complete d ouche

Kali maybe based on Debian, doesn't mean they have not removed anything from it :)

I don't think there's a strict superset subset thing on distros :)

So... What has this got to do with Steam again?
