Here's system specs:
Acer Aspire One (mini laptop)
1 GB RAM
Fresh, dual boot install of both Windows 7 and Kali Linux, with hard drive completely wiped clean and reformatted prior to install of either OS. Windows installed first.
Install was apparently successful, as the GRUB properly loads and processes start running after I select Kali..and I eventually get to the login screen. Live CD also suffers the following issue:
About 15-30 seconds into start of Kali the system goes into sleep mode. I press the blinking power button, system fires back up and processes continue. Another 15-30 seconds afterwards system goes back to sleep mode. I wake it up again. Another 15-30 seconds goes by and system goes back to sleep.
This continues on until I eventually get to the login screen..I had the patience once to get there. I was able to take a picture of the screen as soon as the screen came back on after the first wake up. Note the line ending in 1045. "Waking up from system sleep state S3", and the few just beforehand.
I can't very well try to do anything in Kali with a narcoleptic system!
I would like to also add that I have a desktop system with an identical dual boot system, prepared the same way with the same disc, has no issues whatsoever. So, if any repairs can/need to be made within another Kali console, I have the ability to physically connect the laptop hard drive to my desktop to make said repairs.
