Ciao,
I would try kali-linux-2016.2-amd64.iso with a live USB key, but my system boot only with uefi32.
How can I prepare the iso oriented with this uefi.

P.S successfully tried Linux Mint and Ubuntu.

Many thanks.

Happy Xristmas to all.

Ciao

Download these files from here: http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/fedora/releases/18/Fedora/x86_64/os/EFI/BOOT/
Create a directory /EFI/BOOT in your bootable USB and add these files in that sub-folder(BOOT).

To _defalt:
Files on /EFI/BOOT of iso distribution must be erased and replaced with this others ?
Thanks

Originally when you create a bootable USB for kali linux there will be no EFI folder and its files. So you have to manually create that directory else your bootable USB won't be recognized at boot.
