Hey, so I've been using Kali for a while now as a virtual image on VirtualBox, on my Linux Fedora KDE. Which is terrible, because Kali won't even work without be turning off Secure Boot, which defeats the purpose...
So I figured I'll create another bootable USB like I did with Fedora before. For Fedora I used Fedora media writer and it worked just fine, as I installed Fedora on an old desktop as main OS.
I then tried creating a bootable USB stick with "Win32DiskImager."
I plugged that into my other Desktop which is running Fedora. Hit F12 for boot options. Under UEFI I don't get any options really, but under Legacy it lists my USB stick.
So then I boot with the USB stick and get greeted with the familiar Kali installer, giving me multiple options.
I then chose graphical install and once I go through language and country selection I get this message:
"there was a problem reading data from the cd-rom."
So that doesn't work.
Then I tried the live version. That runs for 3 seconds and brings me back to the install screen with multiple options.
I've literally tried everything for 4 hours now and I can't seem to be able to install Kali as my main OS.
I am familiar with Kali, using it through virtualbox for school and hobby. But I am at a total loss, as to why I simply can't create a working bootable USB, when I've done that multiple times before with other OS...
I've seen many threads about this, but nothing seems to work for me?
Help would be much appreciated as my career and school depends on this.
