I have found kalipi-config already included inside the kali img. rpi-update isn't. to get the new version:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install lua5.1 alsa-utils psmisc && sudo apt --fix-broken install && sudo apt-get --reinstall install libraspberrypi-bin && sudo ldconfig

wget http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/pool/main/r/rpi-update/rpi-update_20210618_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i rpi-update_20210618_all.deb

Hi I got it working on the rpi5 4gb.

apt-get update
sudo apt install lua5.1 alsa-utils psmisc && sudo apt --fix-broken install && sudo apt-get --reinstall install libraspberrypi-bin && sudo ldconfig

wget http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/pool/main/r/rpi-update/rpi-update_20230904_all.deb
wget http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/pool/main/r/raspi-config/raspi-config_20240108_all.deb
dpkg -i rpi-update_20230904_all.deb raspi-config_20240108_all.deb

I've tried this approach on a Kali
PRETTY_NAME="Kali GNU/Linux Rolling" NAME="Kali GNU/Linux" VERSION_ID="2025.3" VERSION="2025.3" VERSION_CODENAME=kali-rolling ID=kali ID_LIKE=debian HOME_URL="https://www.kali.org/" SUPPORT_URL="https://forums.kali.org/" BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.kali.org/" ANSI_COLOR="1;31"

and i got this error
