aircrack-ng end with illegal instruction
« on: November 02, 2016, 06:19:25 AM »
Hi
I tried aircrack-ng..my card is tplink wn422g, zydas chipset..i got the wifi working as regular client..
monitor mode is enabled but when I issued airmon-ng, it crashed and showed illegal instruction.
I tried on my ap and virtual ap on my laptop (both broadcom chipset).

I google it and read that some version need to be downgraded, so the new one doesnt work..but the old one does.
Some other said that it need to be recompile.

Any other user experienced the same problem ?

... it crashed and showed illegal instruction.
That means your CPU received an instruction it does not support. For example, attempting to execute a 686 instruction
on a 486 processor.

hi aris

i've got the same problem running 'airodump-ng' on two my notebooks ; TCL v7.2 x86

as Rich said already, your (and my) CPU doesn't support a set of instructions that aircrack-ng was compiled with.

i downloaded package 'Aircrack-ng 1.2 RC 4' from the official site to my 'Asus Eee PC X101CH' and compiled it. at least 'airodump-ng' works from /tmp directory without *illegal errors. i'm going to assemble my personal .tcz extension. good luck! try it!

On Atom procesor family this is quite normal behavior because of the processsor family itself - it's like an ARM capable of doing some x86 :)
