Windows 10: Trying to set up Kali Linux on a live Bootable USB using Win 32 Disk Imager.

So I am following the Kali Linux book guide to setting up and formatting a live USB. I download the Win 32 Disk Imager and launched it after I mounted the USB like it says, but when I go to find the image though Win 32 it doesn't bring up the Kali Linux Iso any where! And I have checked the Iso is not damaged, what should I try to do next? I'm lost and I looked around and it doesn't seem like other people are having this problem.


Thanks,

Multi-bootable USB

Hey guys from TPU, couldn't find any specific thread pertaining to the question asked on title. As mentioned, I'm trying to create a bootable USB, but with many specifics boots available.

I've been trying to create one with multiple boot device including one that enables me to run Windows 10 directly on the USB Thumb Drive but to no avail.

The list of bootable images i'm trying to create are

1. Windows 10 (A full OS running from thumb drive)
2. Windows 10 ISO (Bootable disk image for fresh install)
3. MemTest86+

Have tried YUMI or UUI from the website USB PenDrive Linux but as this is my first time, i don't know how am i screwing up or am doing it right.. Anyone got a rough idea on a step by step guide? Thanks!

 

Dual boot SSD, Windows 10, kali linux 3

Hi Tech Gurus,

I am wanting to dual boot kali linux with windows 10, however, I partition it in windows 10, I allocate 60 GB for kali linux, secure boot is off, boot from usb is on. I created a live kali image on a 64 gb usb c pen drive, I booted that and tried installing
it in my ssd and kali linux doesn't seem to recognise the partition.

Then I used the same pen drive to install kali in the same live usb. I am missing something or my procedure is wrong, kali linux doesn't seem to install it in the pendrive. It says kernel is unresponsive and ext4 file format creation failed. So basically
the installation fails.

I need to either dual boot in the ssd with out affecting the UEFI boot firmware or install it in my pendrive, since it is USB C, can accept the performance. Please recommend and advice.

Truly.

 

How do i remove Kali Linux and download windows back

You need to make the ISO file bootable. Copying to the USB drive is not enough.

Copy the ISO file to your local drive in Kali Linux.

Download Unetbootin and use it to make a bootable copy as described in the following article:

Proceed to configure your BIOS too from the USB then perform a clean install:
