Double check your hashfile. I had to explicitly paste the hash into my hashfile because i couldnt echo it into my hashfile without escaping the $ or else the shell would parse it as a variable. The resulting hashfile would only load 2450745/ giving me a mismatch error. Explicitly pasting the hash into a file or escaping the $ in my echo redirect gave me no problems. I ran this without a problem on my windows laptop with version 3.10, and on my ubuntu box version 3.00.
I know a lot of people have had problems with hashcat under The-Distribution-Which-Does-Not-Handle-OpenCL-Well (Kali) as well. So it could also be an OS issue, in which case I would recommend using ubuntu server 14.04 if you want to use linux, else just use the windows binary because there is no point in wasting system resources running hashcat under a VM.
