Hello guys. Sorry if my english is not perfect Last night I run the infamous lazykali script and asked it to update & clean kali. This is what the script line does:

 apt-get update && apt-get -y dist-upgrade && apt-get autoremove -y && apt-get -y autoclean

now everything is messed up: i have no network drivers anymore, and after rebooting the machine the GUI mode is gone too. Looking into the web it comes out that apt-get update --fix-missing might fix the whole thing. Is it true?

The problem with doing this is that I have no access to the internet whatsover. My laptop DOESNT have an ethernet access, so im trying to get it connected through the wifi. Well I set the ESSID and its security key but when i run

dhclient wlan0

it gives me

run-parts: failed to stat component /etc/dhcp/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/samba: no such file or directory

is there a possibile workaround despite from reinstalling kali? I have another windows laptop with access to the internets and a usb drive.

regards paul
