I am running kali linux using persistence USB and I was trying to install VMware. After installation when I open VMware I get this error: "C header files matching your running kernel were not found. Refer to your distribution's documentation for installation instructions.". So I tried this command: apt-get install -y linux-headers-$(uname -r) and I get this error:

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree       

Reading state information... Done

E: Unable to locate package linux-headers-4.9.0-kali3-amd64

E: Couldn't find any package by glob 'linux-headers-4.9.0-kali3-amd64'

E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'linux-headers-4.9.0-kali3-amd64'

The command uname -a gives me this:

uname -a

Linux kali 4.9.0-kali3-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.18-1kali1 (2017-04-04) x86_64 GNU/Linux

And uname -r gives me this: 4.9.0-kali3-amd64

I have updated kali linux but it does not seem to solve this problem. Any suggestions?

  This is what I get linux-headers-4.9.0-kali4-amd64 is already the newest version (4.9.30-1kali1). but then again when I run uname -r I get 4.9.0-kali3-amd64. I read in some places that because it is running on live USB the kernel is unable to change and it will always boot on the kernel of the ISO that was installed in the USB but then I found this post unix.stackexchange.com/questions/364457/… where this guy claims to have found a solution but I cannot understand the paths.
