Hi,
So I want to boot kali straight off on a 128gb USB but for some reason it's not working.
Secure boot is disabled and still my boot setting can't recognize the USB. The way I am installing the OS is simply booting the installer on a 8gb USB and installing it on the 128gb USB.
I formatted both the drives with both FAT32 and NTFS.
I have used rufus, unetbootin, USB installer, win32 disk imager and rawrite32 and still nothing works.
I formatted the drives with MBR partition

- Machine: Dell Inspiron 13-7378
- USBs: Strontium 32 GB usb, Sandisk 128gb usb
- Kali 2018.2 ISO, sha256 matches
- I've downloaded the ISO twice now

Thanks guys

Kali-for-good

Have you turned off 'SECURE BOOT'...........turn it off if it is ON!
